Description
Hi, I'm Emily Carter. I lost my sheet music from last night's practice. I was at the Ashtabula Public Library around 5:45 p.m. Saturday, and I remember setting the folder on a chair by the grand piano near the main entrance. When I turned back, it was gone. The folder holds pages for a Bach and a Chopin set, and my initials are on the inside cover. It matters to me not just as notes, but as a memory of performing with friends. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to know it's safe.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
