Collaborative Study

The key to the future lies in applying the knowledge that society gathers today. Connecting people—scholars, students, citizens—with knowledge when and where it’s needed is how Mann Library is making a difference. The friends and alumni who generously support Mann’s resources and services make our work possible.

Gifts to Mann Library help ensure:

  • A truly stellar collection of information resources—books, journals, databases and online resources—that help scholars push beyond the frontiers of existing knowledge in their fields.
  • A richly extensive, highly accessible, and user-friendly repertoire of digital resources that helps bring the depth and breadth of Mann’s collection right to our users’ desktop computers.
  • State of the art computer technology for students and scholars preparing, illustrating, and presenting their research projects.
  • The rescue and protection of invaluable historical treasures for use by current scholars and the generations that will follow.
  • New initiatives—such as the library’s Chats in the Stacks book talk series—that support the goals of the university to foster the exploration, exchange, and dissemination of new ideas.

Support from friends and alumni gives Mann Library the ability to stay at the cutting edge of what is possible in bringing information to people who need it. Alumni and friends of the library have also found that giving to the library can be a meaningful and lasting way to honor a loved one or mentor.
