Support the Libraries
Whether through the helpful expertise of a librarian, a collaborative study space for students, or a rich and rare collection of books, our resources are utilized by tens of thousands of curious minds - undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and professional students - in support of their quest for knowledge, and to serve the citizens of our state by addressing society’s most vital issues.
Your gift to the Libraries supports our mission of "connecting people with knowledge."
