It's a little overdue!

Whitman County library staff member Sara Garza looks over "The American Twenties," a book which was returned to the library after being more than 60 years overdue.

The library recently agreed to waive 60 years of late fees in order to secure return of the book.

An anonymous caller asked about the library's policy on overdue books and explained they have a book which was really overdue.

When returned, the book’s due date card showed it should have been returned Oct. 13, 1954.

Policy at the time, called for a late fee of two cents per day which would total $638.90.

The district no longer charges...
