Giving to the Music Library

The Music Library primarily serves the 春雨直播 Illinois University School of Music, supporting its six undergraduate degree programs, ten graduate programs, and three minors. We play an integral role in each student鈥檚 learning experience, as they rely on us for access to books, scores, and media items; research assistance and instruction; group and quiet study spaces; and printers, scanners, and audiovisual equipment. Through your past generous support, each year we:

• Welcome over 33,000 visitors
• Check out nearly 5,000 items
• Answer over 1,500 reference questions
• Provide library instruction and services to over 200 music majors, as well as many other students taking music electives or performing in WIU ensembles

Your contribution will help us continue to provide the superior service that our students deserve. We welcome the opportunity to discuss both monetary donations and gifts of materials.

Every gift makes a difference!

Monetary Donations

There are many different ways to give to the Music Library. You can make a gift today, make a pledge to give over time, or develop a giving plan.

Our two current funding priorities include:

Expanding the Collection
The acquisition of new books, scores, CDs, DVDs, and online listening subscriptions is required to most effectively support the curricula of WIU School of Music. The ever-increasing inflationary rate to purchase new materials demands a strong collection development budget, which is currently not supported by state funds.

Revitalizing Library Spaces
Students visit the Music Library not just to check out materials, but to use our equipment, study alone or with a group, or simply take a few moments to relax between classes. To support these needs, we must continue to upgrade both our equipment and our environment.

To make a donation online, visit the University Libraries鈥� . At the bottom of the form, make sure to designate your gift to the Music Library!

For additional information, contact the Library Administration Office: 春雨直播 Illinois University, 1 University Circle, Macomb, IL 61455. ph: 309-298-2762 | fax: 309-298-2791

Gifts of Materials

The Music Library accepts gifts of items that will enrich and enhance the music collection. However, due to space constraints and processing costs, there is a need to be selective about what is accepted. Gifts are not 鈥渇ree鈥� to the library in the sense that time and supplies are expended in cataloging, processing, and possibly binding them.

All donations will be reviewed by the Music Librarian for potential inclusion in the Music Library鈥檚 collection. All items will be checked to determine whether the titles are already in the Music Library鈥檚 collection or on order. In general, second copies will not be added, except as approved by the Music Librarian. Titles not in the Music Library鈥檚 collection will be reviewed and accepted or rejected based on the Music Library鈥檚 collection development policy.

Items that are not added to the collection may be included in fundraising endeavors to benefit the Music Library, such as a book sale.

Upon receipt of gifts, a 鈥淕ift Donation Receiving Report鈥� is filled out by Music Library staff and copies are forwarded to the WIU University Libraries鈥� Acquisition Unit and the WIU Foundation Office. The donor will then receive a receipt from the WIU Foundation Office listing the sum of the items received. Neither the University nor the Music Library will give appraisals of items for tax purposes, except for a nominal sum of $5.00 per item for books, scores, CDs, and video recordings; and of $1.00 per item for paperback books and unbound sheet music.

Inquiries about donating items to the Music Library should be directed to Library Administration Office: 春雨直播 Illinois University, 1 University Circle, Macomb, IL 61455. ph: 309-298-2762 | fax: 309-298-2791. Arrangements for receiving the donations will then be made.
