Items found by librarians - Interesting and fun read. I actually found a drivers license in a book I had checked out at the library and it was for "Elvis Presley". It was obviously a fake gift type item. I showed it to a librarian when I returned the book and he took it, advising me that he saves things found in books. After reading your article I looked on the library's web site and sadly did not see anything like that. Kind of fun to see things like that. Thanks for sharing that!
Gayla, thanks for the additional comments about the memoir, Live Wire, you have inspired me to give it a shot. Regarding the library article, I agree with you that it is sad that so many libraries are having financial difficulties. They hold our history.. literally… and communities depend on them for so much more than borrowing books… they are gathering places, places of research, places of needed solace, place of job search… they should be a priority!
So nice to see SoNovelicious in my inbox, Gayla. Have a safe and wonderful trip!
Interesting about Kelly Ripa. I never would have guessed. And, yes, way past time for Amazon to act!

Thanks for the Live Wire recommendation - I'll check it out. You felt that Kelly was honest and forthcoming? The Librarian article is a treasure!
