Giving to the Library
The library's mission is to foster curiosity, critical thinking, and transformational learning. We provide services, spaces, and collections that encourage exploration and engagement with new ideas. We build equity in our community by providing access to resources and creating an inclusive, welcoming environment. We make connections across and beyond the university in order to contribute to the creation and preservation of knowledge and information.
Supporting the library helps us provide the resources students need to succeed. Your donation supports access to technology, course materials, historical and archival materials, books, and welcoming, comfortable places to study. We welcome collaborations; if you have an idea for something that might help students succeed, please reach out!
Donations to this fund are used for a wide range of purposes, from computers and equipment for students, to purchasing books and journals for our collections.
