<div><div id="ydp98a1b591yiv4244671257"><div dir="ltr">Good Monday morning! (I know--what an oxymoron, right?!) Anyway, does any library keep a record of donations, most specifically, who donated and for whom? I need to create a policy for receiving cash donations in memory of a deceased person. But, I'm pretty sure it is breaking privacy law but not 100% sure, so I thought I'd poll the masterminds on here to see what y'all do. Oh, and if you have a policy, will you send it along? Thanks! OK, now go have another cup of coffee/tea because I am going to as well.<br clear="all"><div><div><div class="ydp98a1b591yiv4244671257gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div><span>Linda Lyshol, MLIS, MPA<br></span></div><div><span>Library Director, Branch District Library</span></div><div><span>10 E.
