Quick Glance: Overdue Book Returned to Massachusetts Library After 119 Years
- After 119 years and thanks to an observant librarian in West Virginia, the scientific text finally made its way back to the Massachusetts library.
- Librarian Plein found the treatise and noticed it had been part of the collection at the New Bedford library and had not been stamped 'Withdrawn,' indicating that while extremely overdue, the book had not been discarded.
- "This came back in extremely good condition," said Olivia Melo, Director of the New Bedford Public Library, on Friday.
- The library occasionally receives books that are 10 or 15 years overdue, but nothing even close to a century or more, according to Melo.

- The decision was largely influenced by business demand for green energy.
- "The market is moving toward clean energy regardless of what happens with the Supreme Court decision," said Chelsea Johnson, deputy director of Nebraska Conservation Voters.

Quick Glance: Trump-backed Herbster loses to Pillen in Nebraska; Mooney wins in West Virginia.

- Trump endorsed Herbster six months earlier, despite Ricketts' advice, and the governor supported Pillen in January.
- Trump did not go into depth on the McKinley-Mooney race during his West Virginia rally, but he did say the stakes were high.
