Libraries sell off and discard their books routinely, they don’t keep the same books, so returning a 10 or 20 year old book to them is meaningless, sell the 150 year old book on ebay so that someone who is interested can buy it, or so that AI can scan it and destroy it.

150 years overdue? It’s obvious. This library didn’t have a library cop.

Should be no fines due.
I’ll be they cannot even read the book, beings as it is 150 years old language and reflective of those 150 years old times.

fine has been waived I believe for library books, the statute of limitations is 5,000 years.

But luckily for the Simmons family, the fine has been waived.Um ... Do library fines and inheritance laws work that way? Will I inherit my parents' traffic and parking fines? Maybe we should keep quiet about that so the government doesn't get any ideas.

Thank goodness the library got it back before an AI company could snatch & shred it.
