Here's a story that'll warm any librarian's heart. (via Reader's Advisor Online) Remember the US Airways pilot, Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, who made that amazing emergency landing in the Hudson River last month? He left a book on the plane that he'd checked out from a California state university, through his local library.
Sullenberger could have easily forgotten about the book, but instead he asked for an extension (until when? just gotta wonder) and a waiver of overdue fees.
The library was so pleased with Sullenberger's diligence, it's waiving all fees and dedicating the replacement book to him.
Nice.
