Rise Up Together UM

Your gift to the UM Foundation in support of the Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library helps us direct essential resources so students and faculty can thrive. 

Your unrestricted support helps provide students access to premiere research resources that are critical for academic and professional success, creates welcoming, safe and multi-purpose study spaces for students seven days a week, and supports scholarships for student employees who are vital to running the library and providing its services.  

When you give to the Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library, you help: 

• Expand our outreach to current and new library users through lectures, exhibits and resources. 
• Maintain online access to books, journals, data and other content in print and electronic formats. Your support also helps us purchase new materials, which allows campus to access current research and data. 
• Improve the library’s services and spaces, giving students access to reliable, innovative services and flexible, comfortable study spaces as they excel on their path to graduation.
• Enhance and update library spaces to support 21st century learning and innovation.
• Support an internship that gives real-world experience to a student considering a library career.
• Fund scholarships acknowledging and recognizing library student employees for their dedication.

Thank you for supporting UM during The Big Give. When we give — all together UM — we change lives. We change the world. We rise up together.
