Giving to the Libraries

Welcome to the Development Office for Virginia Tech's University Libraries! We are delighted that you stopped by and hope you will visit us in Blacksburg sometime soon.


Our primary purpose and desire is to partner with you, our cherished alumni, faculty, and friends, to enable the University Libraries to provide and sustain the margins of excellence required of a top university library. In a world of accelerating materials costs and ever-increasing information needs, your philanthropic support is an essential component of our success. Thank you for doing your part to keep the "heart of the scholarly enterprise" beating ever stronger.

In 1956, when this photograph was taken in the then new Newman Library, one could scarcely imagine the varied and essential roles University Libraries would play in meeting the information and service needs for VT in the 21st century.
