Ever the one to fear causing a scene, I calmly searched the entire second floor for my wallet.
But it was gone.
In my hail mary attempt I went and asked if the library has a lost and found. The librarian chucked and responded:
"Why? Did you lose your wallet?"
And before I could even describe my wallet--which is often the standard operating procedure for proving a lost item is actually yours--the guy at the counter handed me my wallet. I almost started crying out of relief! Apparently a reference desk librarian had found it near the printing station. (I knew it!)
In hindsight I guess you don't need to really prove a wallet is yours when it has your IDs inside...
The world is still a good place.
