This reminds me. Once when I was working at my university library, we discover a polariod of a naked male torso. As far as i can recall, we also figured out which student it was…

Some of these were touching. The “nobody loves me” notes. I hope that person found out he/she was loved lots. The family photos. The wedding certificate. (Can’t tell you how many times I’ve lost mine!)

But I’d have to stuff myself into an autoclave if I wandered across a used Q-tip.

Thanks, Julie–great articles!

I now have a yen to go work in a used bookstore and find a book with $40,000 in it!

And to think, I only ever mark my books with receipts, postcards and–gasp–bookmarks! How dull. I shall have to start writing interesting and cryptic little notes for librarians to find.
