UW Libraries welcomes donations of materials that support the research, curricular, and recreational interests of students, staff, and faculty. Accepting gifts can be costly, as the per-title processing costs range from $13 to $35 per title. Monetary gifts to cover the cost of reviewing and processing gifts are encouraged and always welcomed.
Due to the high costs of processing gifts and space limitations, the libraries only accept gifts in good condition that meet the libraries' collection development goals. Please contact the libraries in advance to discuss any materials you are considering donating. Our Gifts Coordinator can be reached at
librdm@uwyo.edu.
Materials abandoned in book drops or at a Help Desk will be recycled without review. UW Libraries is unable to pay for shipping gifts.
