Library Policies: Gift Policy

Donations

We have found that accepting discarded items from personal collections is not a strategy for building a collection relevant to the needs of today’s students. We also do not have the staff or space to process unsolicited donations. Therefore, the library does not accept gifts of books or other physical materials.

We appreciate offers of items for Marian's University Archives if those items help document the history of Marian University. If you have items you would like to donate to University Archives, please contact Archivist Shelby Riley (sriley@marian.edu).
