uh oh, library says I still have a book out that I returned

pay or they might freeze you from getting things such as your license.

Otherwise you are safe.

Dont worry about it.
 
Sometimes the book will get on the shelf without being properly logged in.

Best thing is to go to the library and look for the book on the shelves.

If it is not there, then you are assumed responsible.

Find a copy on E-Bay, donate it and write off the donation on your taxes for the cover price.
 
keep looking at the library for it. BUT i know around here they will have a warrent for you arrest if it does not get back and you do not pay for it!

heh my wife was arrested for it. BAD part was the damn book was still on the shelf IN fact it had been checked out 3 times after she returned it!

to bad it was before we got married. I would have sued the crap out of the library for it.
 
Well if you lived here it wouldn't matter. You can check out as many books as you like and never HAVE to bring them back.

Oh, they will notfiy you, but that's about it.

I still have one I checked out in 1984. 😛

Of course, once your overdue, you can't check out any more books, with the same card that is.

Worse. Bookman.

He'll be all over you like a pit bull on a poodle.

The library investigator's name is actually, Bookman? That's amazing. That's like an ice cream man named, Cone.
 
Well, let me tell you something, funny boy. Y'know that little stamp,

the one that says "New York Public Library"? Well that may not mean

anything to you, but that means a lot to me. One whole hell of a lot.

Sure, go ahead, laugh if you want to. I've seen your type before:

Flashy, making the scene, flaunting convention. Yeah, I know what you're

thinking. What's this guy making such a big stink about old library

books? Well, let me give you a hint, junior. Maybe we can live without

libraries, people like you and me. Maybe. Sure, we're too old to change

the world, but what about that kid, sitting down, opening a book, right

now, in a branch at the local library and finding drawings of pee-pees

and wee-wees on the Cat in the Hat and the Five Chinese Brothers?

Doesn't HE deserve better? Look. If you think this is about overdue

fines and missing books, you'd better think again. This is about that

kid's right to read a book without getting his mind warped! Or: maybe

that turns you on, Seinfeld; maybe that's how y'get your kicks. You and

your good-time buddies. Well I got a flash for ya, joy-boy: Party time

is over. Y'got seven days, Seinfeld. That is one week!

 
LMAO, I just watched that episode yesterday.

Better return that book, or someone might come and give you an atomic wedgie.

Dang. All of the good Seinfeld references have already been used. I will just bow out of this thread gracefully.

You forgot this one:

Hoyt: State your name.

Bookman: Bookman, Joe Bookman.

Hoyt: And what's your occupation?

Bookman: I'm a library cop.

Hoyt: What does a library cop do?

Bookman: We chase down library delinquents.

Hoyt: Anyone in this room ever delinquent?

Bookman: Yeah, he was. Right over there - Seinfeld.

Hoyt: How long was his book overdue?

Bookman: 25 years. We don't call them delinquent after that long.

Hoyt: What do you call them?

Bookman: Criminals.
