Can you tell me how much my book is worth?
Answer
No, the staff members of the Ohio History Connection are prohibited from offering appraisals. Libraries and museums are not licensed to give appraisals. We do not speculate on the worth of an item because it is considered a conflict of interest to suggest the value of an item that we could potentially collect.
