Alumni, Parents, and Friends

With collections, spaces, and expertise touching all fields of study, Cornell University Library is the intellectual alma mater for all Cornell alumni as well as a beacon for all champions of lifelong learning. We invite you to stay engaged with the Library through our special events like book talks and exhibits, and to enjoy collections and services that we offer to alumni and friends like you. We also hope you will continue to share our commitment in advancing Cornell’s mission of academic excellence and social impact. Together, we make a difference not only in fields of study on campus but in communities transformed by the work of Cornell’s scholars. 

Give to the Library

Give a gift that helps Cornell University Library do the greatest good on campus and beyond. Cornell University Library Annual Fund dollars support a range of vital areas, including building collections in all disciplines, employing student workers, enhancing and maintaining study spaces, and growing the teaching and research expertise of our librarians who serve the Cornell community as well as scholars and library patrons who visit from all over the world.
