The ruling stems from a motion by a Nassau County woman who asked the court to declare her the rightful owner of books long-held in her family: a work book from Benjamin Franklin's print shop and seven rare bibles published between 1672 and 1861 that the New York Public Library says were stolen between 1988 and 1991.

The New York Public Library’s claims on rare, centuries-old books that it says were stolen from it are not time-barred, a judge decided.
The ruling stems from a motion by Margaret Tanchuck, who asked Nassau County Supreme Court Justice Stephen Bucaria to declare her the rightful owner of books long-held in her family: a work book from Benjamin Franklin’s print shop and seven rare bibles published between 1672 and 1861.
