As part of the biennial budget appropriation, the University administration has approved a major new investment in the University Libraries and its collections. $2 million of new, recurring funds have been allocated to the Libraries’ base budget!

This commitment will enable the Libraries to significantly build on the goal of targeting specific teaching and research needs of individual departments and classes as well as overall campus information needs. In addition to maintaining and adding to journal subscriptions and purchasing more books across many subject areas, the following new electronic resources are now available; more resources will be coming later in the Fall as publisher licenses are negotiated.

For a list of new books and indexes purchased through this appropriation please see New Investment in the University Libraries.
