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 thtough promot¬
ing public interest in the role of a research library in education; second,
through gifts of hooks, manuscripts and other useful materials; and third,
through financial contributions.

By helping pteserve 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.
