I have received the following tip that I have been unable to confirm:

There is a cat named Palla di Neve (Snowball) living at the Archivio di Stato (Sezione) in Varallo Sesia, Italy.


If you know of any other library cats in Europe or if the status of a cat listed above has changed, update the Library Cats Map.
