Giving
The Penn Libraries plays an essential role in advancing the University’s mission as a premier institution of research, teaching, and learning. We enrich the experience of every student by providing access to the expertise of talented librarians; distinctive resources; collaborative and welcoming spaces; and engaging programming. Our ability to advance knowledge to power Penn and better the world would not be possible without the generosity of our alumni, donors, parents, and friends. Join us today.
