Other than ironing...I don't want to iron 200 pages individually. It'd be less effort just to buy a new book.

put thin sheets of cardboard or newspaper between the pages and put something heavy on the cover, like a big dictionary or something, and leave it overnight. that will usually un-warp the pages

consider Rogers. you'll not in any respect get them thoroughly flat again.The heavy container is an effective theory, and if the pages are nonetheless moist, putting some thing to absorb the water between pages (like paper towels) can help some more beneficial. The ironing trick Rogers mentions can help even more beneficial, i have done it, besides the undeniable fact that very time ingesting if it has many pages. you need to iron heavily, i have ironed crinkles into the pages through no longer being careful.

Very carefully with an iron set on low. Iron each page individually and be very careful not to tear the pages.

Take it to the library and explain. Usually they have someone who does book repairs. It'll need to be dried thoroughly or it'll develop mildew. Be apologetic and admit what you did, and they may not even charge you. If you iron it and burn the pages or do the drop and run, they could well find out it was you-- they'll look to see who had the book out-- and they'll be more likely to fine you than if you're honest.
I work in a library.

As a librarian who buys books in a public library I would suggest that you just return it as is and apologize to staff for it's condition. We are constantly replacing worn out or damaged items and would probably remove it from the shelf, no matter how well it was ironed. :)

take sheets of newspaper and put them in between the pages, then close book and set aside, the wet pages from the book will soak into the newspaper but not the other way around and it will take maybe 2 hours depending on how soaked it is.

Ironing would work... but for an entire book?
Just drop it on the counter (when nobody is looking) and RUN!

I really don't know, but why can't you just turn it in. Nobody will know that you did it, right? Or that's what happens in my part of this world.
No one really cares, as long as the book is readable. What book was it?
SORRY I THINK THE FIST ANSWER IS BEETER THAN MINE!

well i don't think you can unwrinkle it. the only thing you can do is turn it in and then just suffer the consequences whatever they may be. i am not trying to be mean i am just saying because the same thing happened to me. all i did was turn it in, they didn't know it was me so i was good to go.
