crl-12088	Briggs, Donald R.	Gift Appraisal Policy in Large Research Libraries	1968	3	.pdf	application/pdf	1485	70	63	At the Library of Congress the Principal Evaluations Officer, in con- sultation with subject specialists, makes the appraisal; if the material is estimat- ed to be worth more than $1,000, a formal ad hoc evaluation committee, con- sisting of subject and acquisitions spe- cialists, is set up.5 Many libraries indicated that there was a price limit above which they call in an outside agency to do the ap- praisal. It recommended that libraries should not appraise gifts for inheritance or tax purposes except in those cases where only items of comparatively low monetary value are involved.	cache/crl-12088.pdf	txt/crl-12088.txt
