THE FRIENDS OF THE COLUMBIA LIBRARIES

AN OPPORTUNITY

The Friends assist the Columbia Libraries in several direct ways: first,
through their active interest in the institution and its ideals and through
promoting public interest in the role of a research library in education;
second, through gifts of books, manuscripts and other useful materials; and
third, through financial contributions.

By helping preserve the intellectual accomplishment of the past, we lay
the foundation for the university of the future. This is the primary purpose
of the Friends of the Columbia Libraries.
