Subscribe to the Library PodcastDonations Policy & Procedures
Donations are accepted only when the donor places no restrictions on their housing, handling or disposition. Storage space, staff time requirements, cataloguing costs and our accepted criteria for selection of materials are all considered before adding gifts to the collection. Many donations are placed in our ongoing library book sale. In acknowledgment of donations, the Library will provide a memo for tax purposes, but monetary appraisals are solely the responsibility of the donor.
To donate books or other materials, call or email Ellen Wertman at 703.323.3868, ewertman@nvcc.edu to arrange a time to meet in the parking space closest to the library building. We do not generally pick up items off campus, but we can meet you at your car with a book truck.
