Broken: Harvard library dropbox
Charles Henebry writes:
These two pictures show the dropbox for Lamont Library, Harvard's undergraduate library in Harvard Yard. A new sign was put up recently to clarify when the dropbox should be used; unfortunately (as is clear from the close-up photo I've attached) the directions don't make sense.
Maybe they want you to break into the library to return the books....
Easily figured out, but poorly worded. The library must have been trying to save money on the sign by leaving off the word "slot".

Whats broken? You put books inside the slot when the library is closed.
