Giving Opportunities
捐赠给俄亥俄大学图书馆在学术资源的数量和教育质量方面发挥了重要作用。 这些捐款加强了现有的捐赠，支持购买新的收藏，维护现有的材料，并提供有利于俄亥俄社区现在和未来几代人的电子资源。
The funds raised through your gifts allow us to invest in new resources and renovations to permit better access to our resources and accommodate teaching programs. You can choose how your gift will influence the Libraries through several funds:
- Alden Endowment
- Dean’s Fund
- Digital Initiatives
- Collections
- Facilities
- More Endowments
- Photo Archive
Library Endowments
Funds from our endowments support efforts to maintain collections that are made up of international, national and local materials. They also promote the preservation of documents, books and artifacts that are within our collections. Other endowments benefit librarians’ teaching programs and aid students with learning disabilities through adaptive technology.

In-Kind
The University Libraries selectively accepts donations of books and other library materials for the circulating collections. Prior to donating, please contact Seth Sisler, head of Acquisitions & Collections Services for more information.
If you are interested in donating books, manuscripts, or other rare materials to the Mahn Center for Archives and Special Collections, please contact Miriam Nelson to discuss your donation.
Be a Friend
The Friends of the Libraries, formed in 1979, helps fill the gap between external funding and the real cost of providing high-quality collections and services to the University community and beyond. The Friends also give an annual gift to the Libraries’ student workers.
