Donate Materials to ARLIS

Types of Donations that ARLIS Accepts

ARLIS attempts to have a comprehensive collection pertaining to Alaska natural and cultural resources. ARLIS welcomes all additions to its collection that fall within the scope of its collection development policy. Welcome are reports, documents, audio-visual materials, and other bibliographic work products that broadly apply to Alaska natural and cultural resources. The documents may be produced or distributed by public or private sector agencies, ARLIS founders, non-founder Alaska government agencies, and contractors. We also accept relevant books that meet collection development guidelines.

If you would like to donate materials to ARLIS, please fill out the Donation Inquiry Form and send to donations@arlis.org.

Delivery to ARLIS

Donors can arrange for drop-off at ARLIS’s loading dock, located on the north side of the library building. Please call 907-786-7651 to arrange a time. No need to find a parking space; just pull right up to the loading dock.

General Guidelines
