Dear all,
this is from the story "The Solter Collection" by Brian Lillie. Alice is a librarian is some university museum. The sentence below refers to the storage room.
Alice pulled the string light and pointed to the back of the locker.
As I can see in the google pictures string light is a kind of garland of lights that are used for example to decorate Christmas tree with. What foxes me is it is unlikely that garlands are used in a storage room. Besides Alice pulled (or in the other place tugged) the string light. I suspect it is just a switch that operates if you pull the string attached to it. Is this correct?
