A good Samaritan in Richland, Washington, recently inherited an old book collection from a friend.
While thumbing through the books, they discovered two belonged to the Richland Public Library.
The checkout cards were dated 1962.
Before that, the longest the books they'd checked out was about a year.
Chris Nolfe manages the library.
He says both books were biographies on Henry Ford.
So they think perhaps the books were loaned to a student.
If the library had collected overdue fees, which they no longer do, they would have totaled about $3,000.
