Gifts of books and other materials may be made directly to the library. The library does not accept materials that are not outright gifts and reserves the right to assign any of its materials wherever the need is greatest. Materials will be considered for addition to the library collection using the same principals of materials selection applied to items purchased for the library collection. (See Collection Development Policies). Positive reviews from a credible journal are a major factor as to whether the library will add a donated item.
All gifts of books and materials must be in useable physical condition. Due to limitations of space, money, and staff, the library reserves the right to accept or discard, at its discretion, any materials given to the library.
Gift materials not utilized for the library collection will be disposed of through sales and recycling as deemed appropriate by the library director.
Unrestricted gifts of money, lands, or property will be reviewed by the board before acceptance or rejection.
The library does not provide appraisals of gifts or potential gifts.
