Library book returned to Va. college 35 years late
Library book returned to Va. college 35 years late
The Associated Press 05:32:47AM (ET) Sunday,October 24,2010. WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) — A novel checked out in 1975 from the College of William & Mary library is back in the stacks. The long-term lender is alumnus Pat Harkin, who found the book of Leon Uris' "QB VII" in a box. He says he planned to return it for the past several homecomings, but he finally made good on his intentions Friday. The library caps its fees at $35. Otherwise, the overdue fee could have hit $1,400 at today's dime-a-day late fee. To atone for his late return, Harkin told the Daily Press of Newport News he made a cash donation to the library. He says it was more than the $35 overdue fee, but less than the $1,400 he might have owed. ___ Information from: Daily Press. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- * Perhaps it's time to remove the caps. *
