A plant is still waiting to be claimed! We don't have a winner yet for week 10. Will you be the one to find the token and claim the plant?

Welcome to week ten of the 2024 scavenger hunts.

A token is hidden within the pages of a physical item at the Life Science Library. Someone will find the item using the following clues, the online library catalog, and just a dash of determination. Will that be you? Once found, bring the library material containing the token to the front desk at the library and exchange it for a propagated house plant.

• This item contains a chapter with the phrase: appendicular skeleton
• This item was published in the windy city

If you get stuck with any hints or using the catalog, you can always ask for advice on searching the catalog at the front desk.
