Question
Yesterday, I forgot my book of Selichot (penitential prayers) in the synagogue. There is a tall stack of the synagogue's Selichot, and naturally, some people's forgotten Selichot got mixed in. I am hesitant to search there so as not to become obligated to return lost items if I see other people's Selichot. What can I do?
Answer
Hello,
You will not be obligated to return them even if you lift the books.
