Lost and Found Items

DC Public Library is not responsible for any customer's lost or abandoned items. Customers are solely responsible for their own property. All unclaimed items turned in to or found by staff will be placed in the location's Lost and Found. As a courtesy to our patrons, the Library staff will make a reasonable attempt to determine and contact the rightful owner of the lost property if the said property contains sufficient identifying information and will be held for five (5) calendar days from the date it was placed in Lost and Found. You can ask for help at any service desk. Staff reserves the right to open an item to verify ownership.
