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.
