Minnesota Librarians at the Winona Public Library couldn’t believe it when a book that had been checked out 35 years ago was returned. “Small Voices: A Grownup’s Treasury of Selections from the Diaries, Journals and Notebooks of Young Children” is a collection of journal entries that public figures had written as children. Someone left it in the library’s drop-box as part of the Amnesty Week for overdue books. Records suggest it was checked out in the early 1970s. But because the circulation system has since changed, it’s not clear who last checked it out. The fine would have been more than $1,400.
