The Found Property Office receives, verifies, and catalogues any literary installation that has been recovered, submitted, or otherwise brought back into temporary Departmental custody. It maintains the official Found Property Log, an evidence-style register documenting each artefact’s condition, point of origin, and circumstances of return. The FPO operates with procedural neutrality: it neither demands nor discourages recovery, acknowledging that circulation may end, pause, or resume without directive. Its role is simply to stabilise the artefact, update the record, and prepare it for either archival retention or future re-release.
