Endowments

Endowed Gifts

Endowments to the University Libraries provide a steady, dependable stream of income that can be used to build collections, buy equipment, hire students and other employees, and offer additional services to our patrons. When other income sources are variable or uncertain, endowments become even more important to maintain excellence in the Libraries. As a donor, you will receive annual reports on the materials purchased or the other accomplishments made possible by your gift.
