<p class="MsoNormal">If you are at a publicly-supported institution, you need to check policies on disposal of materials purchased with public funds. In the three states where I’ve worked, I’ve simply explained that we have to follow government rules for transferring
or disposing of materials purchased with taxpayer funds. We can’t transfer to department without doing paperwork and can’t give to individuals even with paperwork.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">People may grumble, but at publicly-supported institutions, they’re used to government rules. Have a copy handy, in case someone asks.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">FYI, library collections are often considered capital assets, so if they’re transferred to other campus units, the receiving unit has to manage them as capital assets with process for inventory and tracking. No department wants them under
those conditions. Plus, few departments have the shelving to keep bound journals when they stop and think about it.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We recently acquired all of the JSTOR journal packages and are in the process of de-accessioning print overlap for titles that did not have perpetual access before this acquisition. We've been doing JSTOR print overlap withdrawals for
years and typically send this material for recycling. With this new influx of overlap, we have faculty and even whole academic departments on campus requesting the print journals that would be recycled. Alas, we did not have a very strong statement of our
policy/procedures for de-accessioned journal materials.<o:p></o:p></p>
