UPDATE: These books have been recovered; however, the thief is still at large. Over 190 titles have gone missing from the University of Hawaii-Manoa Library, the majority of which were travel related or art books.  There are indications that these titles are now being offered for sale. Anyone offered a book that has not obviously been withdrawn from UH should presume it to be stolen.  There are three different library stamps; these may appear as inkstamps, perforations, or embossed stamps.  The stamps are:

1. The University of Hawaii Library 2. Gregg M. Sinclair Library (or collection) 3. East-West Center Library

If you have been offered or have any information pertaining to these books, please contact ABAA Security Chair John Waite immediately at the following address: jwrb@comcast.net
