Adding review copies
From:  Katy Ginanni <ksginanni_at_email.wcu.edu>

Hi folks,

I searched the list archives for an answer to my question. Someone else asked my very 
question in 1997, but I couldn’t find responses! So, I’m starting from scratch.

We have a professor who is the book review editor for a professional journal, and he gets 
lots and lots of review copies. He’d like to donate these to the library, but I’m not sure 
if that would be “against the rules”, or even whose rules!  Copyright? I dunno.

Can anyone help me out on this? What do your libraries do?

Many thanks,

Katy G.
