Not a tax specialist but as a reviewer, I do not declare the retail value of review copies as income therefore I can not declare the donations to my library and others as a deduction. I do however include an estimate of my donations as part of my end of the year job review as it is indeed a benefit that my employer receives from my employment.

I write book reviews for a number of different organizations during my personal time. In exchange for the reviews, I get to keep the books. I then donate the books - usually to my school. Can I use the value of these books as a tax deduction on my personal taxes? The value is fairly substantial this year.
