The UC Merced Library, at its discretion, gratefully accepts donations of materials, except journals or magazines, that support the teaching, research and service mission of the university.
The Pension Protection Act of 2006 has made significant changes to the requirements for claiming a federal income tax deduction for gifts valued in excess of $5,000. The Library is unable to provide the documentation now required to support a claim of a tax deduction exceeding $5,000 under the following sections of the federal tax code (26 USC): 170 (e) (1) (B) (i) (I) - 170 (e) (1) (B) (i) (II) and 170 (e) (7) (A) - 170 (e) (7) (D).
Donors are advised to seek the advice of an attorney or tax professional before claiming a deduction for their gift on their federal tax return in excess of $5,000.
