Vt. woman facing charges for overdue library items

[January 25, 2011]  ST. JOHNSBURY, Vt. (AP) -- A Vermont woman is facing charges that she failed to return hundreds of dollars' worth of books and videos from the library.

State Police say the 35-year-old woman from Concord has been cited on a charge of theft of rented property.

Police say that in November they received a request from the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum asking troopers to contact the woman. They she had more than 40 books and videos worth more than $460 out for more than a year.

She was cited this month after the library said she did not return the items. She's due in court in March.
