Three Libraries, One Purpose:
Information, Truth, and Knowledge for All
As a top American public research library, we host more than 1.5 million in person visits each year and more than 1 million visits online, inspiring academic life at the University of Massachusetts across more than 90 disciplines.
Transformation is part of everything we do; we have evolved more in the last decade than we did in the last century. To stay ahead of the curve and provide everything the community needs to thrive now and in the future, we must continually invest in people, spaces, technology, and collections.
When you give to the UMass Libraries, you help to elevate spaces for discovery and learning; secure technologies and training our students need now and beyond graduation; support exceptional library staff; expand unique collections; and ensure that intellectual life at UMass continues to Be Revolutionary.
“Thank you for supporting the UMass Amherst Libraries. Every gift is essential for achieving our vision of the Libraries as a hub of critical and creative engagement in scholarship in support of transformative change, at UMass Amherst and in our global community.” Sarah Hutton, Interim Dean of Libraries
