Library Mystery;Someone Packed Shelves With Yellow Pages

Thursday, May 19, 2005

Rows of urine-stained books have been found in two local libraries.

Workers discovered the soiled volumes on the shelves of Aurora Memorial Library in Portage County and Geauga West Library in Chester Township. Hundreds of books -- collectively valued at several thousand dollars -- had to be discarded, officials said.

Police in both communities are investigating.

"I can't even believe we're discussing something like this," said Linda Yanko, manager at Geauga West. "It's appalling and disgusting."

4. It doesn't say what kind of books were damaged

My question would be if someone is targeting certain subjects or areas of interest.
