Donated books why not enterd in Accession Register

[sapna jojare]

I have problem related to donated books. If we will not enterd books in accsession register, where it should be entered?

[Dr.Harmanpreet Singh Sandhu]

I couldn't follow your question (lots of spelling mistakes and wrong phrase of sentence), do you want to ask about treatment of donated books? As per Dr.S.R Ranganathan donated books should be entered in the same accession register and it should be mentioned thereupon. But you should go by your library policy, if it is entered in separate register you should continue to do so.

hi,

if you are receiving books by any sort then you should enter this into accession register.whether it is donated, purchased or gifted. But moreover every library has some own rules so if there is any provision to put gifted or donated book into other place then ok other wise it would be entered in accession register and you will have to put these in remarks column that this is received by donation or gift.

Its better if you maintain a seperate register for gratis/gift. As the document are not purchased from the funds allocated by the parent authorities, there may not be problem if lately these documents to be written off easily with permission of immediate incharge.

I agree with Mr.  Rakesh sir

rule for accessioning donated books in accession register is different for library to library, some libraries maintain separate register for donated/gratis books but some are also do entry in same accession register and mentioned on in it gratis....
