Has the book come in yet?

running manHave you ever waited and waited for a book to be returned to the library so you could borrow it ?

If you were waiting in a Portsmouth library, you would still be waiting.

For an anonymous borrower sent a Portsmouth library a £20 donation after keeping one of its book for 32 years.

But has still not returned the book on railways.

Paulsgrove Library received a cheque from the borrower who confessed to taking an illustrated copy of Railways Between The Wars by HC Casserley, in February 1977.

A note with the cheque declared that the reader preferred to make a donation rather than return the book because of its poor condition.

The book features a selection of black and white pictures of railway stations.
