Âé¶¹Éç’s undergraduate students are important donors to the Âé¶¹Éç Libraries. The Students' Society of Âé¶¹Éç in cooperation with the Âé¶¹Éç Alumni Association created the Library Improvement Fund (LIF) in 1996, setting the stage for a ground-breaking donation of $500,000 to Âé¶¹Éç Libraries.

The LIF continues to raise significant funds annually in support of the Library. In recognition of the importance of the libraries to the mission of the entire university, the Âé¶¹Éç Fund Council has matched the students generosity every year.

Through student funding, LIF committees have created and maintained excellent, highly-used services, facilities improvements and expanded collections. Funding has facilitated much-needed 24-hour study space, improved collections, and substantially improved the physical appearance of the Humanities and Social Sciences Library (HSSL).
