At UNC Greensboro, we do provide an acknowledgment 
indicating the number of books donated; the number 
includes *all* books donated, not just those added to the 
library collection -- those which we don't add are put in 
our annual booksale and still count as donations to the 
library.  We do not, however, provide any sort of 
appraisal.  If the donor wants her gift appraised, she must 
take care of that herself.  This strikes me as a pretty 
reasonable policy for any library.
