A book has been returned to a library in Scotland more than 43 years after it was meant to be brought back but luckily there was no fine on the person.
The biography of local poet and writer Edwin Muir by P H Butter was due to be returned to Orkney Library before October 24, 1973.
It was finally checked back in after being found during a house clearance.
Library manager Gary Amos told BBC Scotland: "The person who returned it was amused. There was no fine - it was from too long ago. These things happen periodically."
He added: "It will be looked at carefully, before going back into stock.
