@24hourlibrary: People leave all sorts of things behind at the public library. Mostly water bottles, but, you know, also pants and packets of spicy Thai chili tuna. Still not confident about what that last item is.
my library's lost and found has multiple dedicated water bottle boxes 😅

A full outfit, underwear and all, clearly worn just on the floor in a corner. It’s happened several times now.

So many water bottles get left at ours, we end up having to donate dozens of them every few months when they don't get claimed 😅

You know what’s even more interesting? Some of the things we’ve found in returned books: weed, snake skin, used napkins, bank statements, flight information and tickets, money, credit cards—just to name a few!

I have found a half eaten lemon, a banana peel stuffed under a chair, phones/wallets, tons of water bottles, a shoe, a not nice present left on the carpet from a dog that was snuck into the library and spit out cherry seeds inside a returned book. 😅
