Default "Sentences with neither and either"
Good morning.

Could someone tell me whether I should use singular or plural forms with sentences containing "neither", "either" and "none"

For example which of the following sentences is true?

Neither of the books you are looking for is available.

OR

Neither of the books you are looking for are available



None of the teachers is busy

OR

None of the teachers are busy.

Thank you very much.
