[Michlib-l] Donation policy

Hi, I'm interested in hearing what policies libraries have regarding donations (if any). We receive an almost unmanageable amount of donations, and I'm hoping to find a way to cut the tide, without simply refusing to take them. Do you impose limitations on the age, quality, or relevance of items? Quantity? If you have limitations, do you recommend other nearby places that may be interested in taking the donations instead? Thanks for any info you can give me! Don Priest Southgate Veterans Memorial Library 14680 Dix-Toledo Rd. Southgate, MI 48195 734-258-3002 ext. 3202
