Subject: ACQNET: Determining the fair market value of donations

Hello,

I was curious as to whether any libraries determine the fair market
value of library book donations and then report the value to their
institution's business or development departments.  Our business
office has asked our library about assigning fair market value to
our donations and we wanted to know if/how other libraries handle
this.

I searched the list archives, but did not find any discussion relating
to this particular issue. Any insights are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
