Hello Everyone, As self-publishing becomes more prominent, how do you handle requests to donate or purchase items, particularly from local residents? Does anyone have a policy they would be willing to share? What I have encountered are vastly different levels of quality and it is difficult to say to a local author that their item isn't of good enough "quality" for us to add it. I am looking to add something to both our donation and collection development policies. Thanks for your input. Have a wonderful day, Nyama Nyama Y.
