UW Libraries - Dance Collection Endowment

The purpose of the Endowment is to provide support of materials in all formats: artwork, furniture, equipment, preservation, conservation, programs, and activities focusing on dance.

Betty L. Wagner, Architecture and Urban Studies Librarian, established the Dance Collection Endowment to support her enduring commitment to libraries, particularly those associated with the performing arts.

Betty wishes to inspire others who share her belief in the importance of libraries and love of the performing arts.

Betty retired in June 2004, after 53 years of exemplary service to the Architecture and Urban Planning Library, the University Libraries, and the University of Washington.
