Featured Article:  Man Arrested in Theft of Rare Shakspeare Folio.

A 400-year-old volume of Shakespeare, valued at £15 million ($30 million), has been recovered after a man asked the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC to have it verified as genuine.

The First Folio edition of 1623 is among the rarest books ever printed and scholars consider it to be one of the most important printed books in English.  It was stolen over a decade ago, along with six other centuries-old books and manuscripts, from a display case at the Durham University library in Northern England.

Durham Police have arrested a 51-year-old man in connection with the crime.  To view the full article, click here.
