Library Book Returned 50 Years Late to Wrong Library

At Sandviken's library, a borrowed book has been returned over 50 years too late – and also to the wrong library, reports P4 Gävleborg.

The book – which actually belongs to Gävle city library – is according to the librarian Gabriella Blom the most delayed book they have ever gotten back.

Previously, the city library in Gävle has received a 37 years delayed book. The book in question had a return date of 11 November 1971 and came back to the library in an anonymous letter by mail.
