Carsonville Public Library accepts gifts of books and other materials with the understanding that they will be considered for addition to the collection in accordance with the selection criteria. Carsonville Public Library reserves the right to sell or dispose of gift material not added to the collection. If the title is already in the collection, it will be added only if it is in good condition, if a duplicate is needed, if copies need replacement and if the title has not been superseded. Collections of books cannot be accepted with restrictions which necessitate special housing or which prevent integration of the gift into the general library collections. Carsonville Public Library will not assign a value to any gift material. However, the library will make available to patrons a receipt with the number of books and with a comment on condition. Gifts of funds are always welcome and appreciated. Recommendations from the donor are honored so far as the suggestions are in accordance with the selection criteria.
