So a little story for you all.

On my first interview for my position that I have now at the Folger, I remember there were a bunch of cop cars outside the library. I was thinking to myself... "what am I getting myself into?!" Well turns out a man was arrested for theft of a first folio that he tried to get appraised at the Folger. Now 2 years later, of course the folio was returned to Durham, England, but the trials are going on and the man was just convicted. Here is the article in today's post about the outcome of the trial and the back story of how it all went down. Think of this as an awesome library mystery solved.
