Donations

Answer

The Visual Resource Center accepts material gifts. These gifts will be given through the Office of Development. The Office of Development will prepare any necessary donor agreements or tax forms. The Visual Resource Center is happy to prepare itemized lists of donations.

In accordance with federal tax law, any appraisal of the value of donations is the sole responsibility of the donor. Donation does not automatically equate acquisition into the collection. Items will be assessed for acquisition under the Center’s collection development policy. Any items not acquired by the Center will be donated to other libraries or similar non-profit educational institutions in the area.

Because the Visual Resource Center does not have the conservation capabilities, primary source materials should not be collected. In the event that primary source materials are donated to the Center, they should be directed to the appropriate special collection or archive giving preference to Pfau Library Special Collections and California State University libraries.
