UW’s world-class research relies on access to world-class library services.
The Future of Knowledge Starts with You
Our vision is to be the libraries for a limitless future: to lead the way through a wide-open world of information and opportunity, and empower people to think, create and collaborate for the public good.
You can help us get there.
“Everything the Libraries does to bring the past, present and future together relies on the support of visionary donors committed to the lifelong pursuit of knowledge.”
– Simon Neame, Dean of Libraries
Be a Catalyst of Knowledge for the Public Good
To meet the challenges and opportunities of today and catalyze the breakthroughs of tomorrow, the Libraries, in partnership with donors, is creating and sharing knowledge that will make our world a more informed, connected and humane place.
Through permanently endowed and current-use philanthropic funds, the Libraries Catalyst Fund will accelerate ambitious and innovative projects that reflect our values. Help us accelerate teaching, learning and research.
