Christy Brown book returned to Irish library after 53 years

“The lady returning the book said it had made its way to a flat in London and she was recently entrusted with its return,” Paula told BBC News NI.

She added: “The book has been returned in great condition, and Westmeath Libraries will always welcome long lost books back into the fold.”

Fines for overdue book returns were abolished in all Irish public libraries in January 2019.

“At that time, we would have seen some overdue books returned but I can confidently say that none of them were on loan for over 50 years,” Paula said.
