Do you ever just *evaporate into a cloud of existential dread*

When I was like 8 I stole my schools copy of the graveyard book because I loved it so much and didn't like when it when another kid had it. Should I return it back, it's been like 10 years and I'm pretty sure it's all new staff?

If you want to.

Some twenty years ago, I was talking to a senior librarian from a library somewhere in (as I recall) the rural appalachians, who was telling me that my books were the most stolen books -- or at least the most never-returned -- books they had. I told her that I was sorry, and asked how they felt about this. And she smiled, and she said, "We like to think our books have found their people".

And while I would never approve of stealing from a library, or taking books that other people would need, I think at that moment I decided that perhaps, sometimes, and in some circumstances, it was good that the books in question had found their people.

If you want to make the librarian's day, absolutely send it back, and add a note to it. My library recently got a book back that was "borrowed" in 1985. Obviously it's a completely different staff, and the branch isn't even in the same building anymore (it's a totally different address, even), but it's still the same library. It was a joy to get that in the mail, and the included note was sweet and cute (and talked about how great libraries are). It definitely made our entire day... and gave us a fun story to tell.

So yes, send the book back. Give the librarian a fun story to tell.

I wouldn't read half as many books without the library. I have commitment issues at the bookstore. I check out the maximum so I can read 5% of them.
