*Journal and Book Donations: Alternative Disposition*
------------------------------

A wide variety of organizations facilitate disposition of journals and books
no longer needed by donors but still of value. Some of the groups listed
below will cover partial or all shipping charges; others require postage
only to a distribution point in the United States. It is advisable to
contact individual organizations about their policies before sending any
materials.

If you would prefer to donate to a local institution, Portland State
University Library accepts a wide variety of gift books. For more
