Protocol for Donating Library Materials
Ìý
The donor permanently relinquishes all rights to ownership and disposition, and the gifts becomeÌýthe property of ҹɫÊÓÆµ. Therefore, the library may appropriately exchange, sell, orÌýdispose of those items that cannot be added to the collection, or, at a later time, need to beÌýremoved from the collection.
Ìý
In accordance with the donor's request, appropriate recognition will be given to gifts retained inÌýthe library by affixing gift plates. The library will not set aside a special location for a particularÌýgift of library materials separate from other materials on the same subject or format unless doneÌýthrough a special arrangement overseen by the Library Director. The library will not acceptÌýrestrictions on usage of the materials which are contrary to general library policy.
Ìý
Upon request, a letter of acknowledgement from the Library Director stating the total number ofÌýitems donated will be sent. Appraisal of gifts for tax purposes is the responsibility of the donor.Ìý
Ìý
The needs of academic libraries are both varied and specific. Please be aware that these needs
exclude some of the items people often wish to donate and may be better utilized elsewhere.
