Library Employee Steals Rare Books to Sell on Ebay
A Manchester City Council library employee has been arrested after stealing hundreds of rare books from the Central Library to flog on Ebay. A book collector spotted the items on the site and must have known they were owned by MCC and reported it. One book is said to be 300 years old and worth £20,000.

I thought this was against the library code? Or I imagine would be if one existed. Librarians have always been a shifty group; sitting there reading their book, then walk up to the counter and they don't look up right away so they can finish their precious paragraph!

It would seem that I have been found out. Revel while you can because now you're all going to die.
