Gift Materials Acceptance Policy

In addition to donations of funds, the Horrmann Library also welcomes gifts and contributions for the development of its collection. Especially useful are books and journals that fill existing gaps and that support the curriculum. Gifts are evaluated by the same standard as purchased items to ensure that the collection maintains quality, consistency, and relevance to the needs of the college. Some restrictions apply regarding gift acceptance policy and are as follows.

Gift materials are accepted under the following conditions:

• The Library reserves the right to determine their retention, location, cataloging treatment, and other considerations related to their use. Bookplates identifying the donor will be provided upon request. Items not appropriate for the collection will be sold.
• In rare cases gifts will be refused if there are unacceptable conditions attached to the donation (i.e. restrictive borrowing limits) not in keeping with the mission of the Library.
• A gift acknowledgement letter will be provided by the Wagner College Development Office on request. To protect the donor and the College and comply with U.S. tax laws, the Library cannot appraise gifts for tax purposes. The Library can, however, provide a list of reputable appraisers. Appraisal costs are the responsibility of the donor.
• Gifts must be brought or mailed to the library; the library does not provide pick-up service.
• The donation of old textbooks, magazines, newspapers, or items in poor condition is discouraged.

Please contact Dorothy Davison, Dean of the Library, for further information ddavison@wagner.edu, or 718-420-4221.
