[Publib] odd things to steal from libraries

[Theyer, Hillary]

I understand DVDs, bikes, backpacks and such. I even see office supplies.

We keep losing restroom keys.  All our branch libraries have keyed single restrooms, and the keys walk away routinely.  They are attached to largeish key tags too, so this isn't something you can just toss in your pocket and not know is there.  They don't come back most of the time too, so I don't think someone is putting it in a bag accidentally either.  Yet they walk routinely.

The only thing we can think is that a bunch of people think they open the library, or the storage closet, or something other than the restroom. Which they don't.  What's the value in a key that doesn't open anything for you?
