You can never be sure what you’ll discover in the pages of a book. That’s even more true if that book is checked out from a library. In twenty years of library work Sharon McKellar from Oakland Library in California has been documenting the weird and wonderful things she finds in library books. From recipes, to kids drawings and crochet hooks and even a backstage concert passes. Each item is an anonymous glimpse into someone’s life. Now she’s helping reunite readers with their lost relics through her ‘Found in a Library Book’ project.
