Aviva,
Go for it !!!
I prefer not to quote an amount because I feel that whatever I get is more
than I had before, but, the truth is that very few books cost less than
$25.
We bought book plates from a library supply company.
I also used to send a letter to parents of Bar/Bat Mitzvah students
encouraging them to make a donation in memory of a loved on the occasion of
their child's milestone or in honour of the child's achievement. Students
that get monetary gifts were asked to give the library $18 in honour of
their teachers.
I am retired now so I don't have with me samples of the letters, but it if
you need it I will be happy to add more off the list.
I don't know how the new trend of eBooks will affect it and I did not work
in a day-school.
I hope that this helps.

Subject: [ha-Safran] Looking for help with book donation
I'm sure I've seen this discussed before but I would appreciate any help.
I would like to start a book donor program for my small yeshiva high
school library. I would like to give parents and alumni the ability to
donate money towards (sorely needed) sefarim and other books, in memory
of loved ones and in honor of various smachot.
Does anyone have this program in place (specifically in a school)? How
do you publicize it to parents? Do you have a standard amount or are the
donors allowed to choose? If anyone has a donor form or letter to share,
that would be great. Any help/advice/tips would be appreciated.
Thank you!
