Western’s annual day of giving offers us an opportunity to thank and ask you for your support, with matching opportunities available to expand the impact of your gift. This year, Western Give Day is on April 25, 2024, with early giving open now!

We are committed to meeting the ever-changing needs of those who depend on the Libraries by providing access to a wide array of library collections, unique and primary source materials, and student-centered academic services like those offered in the Tutoring Center, the Hacherl Research & Writing Studio, and the Kitto Graduate Student Hub.  

Your gift to Western Libraries strengthens research, teaching, and learning throughout the university, and enriches opportunities to welcome and engage students on their journeys, as they build their self-confidence, learn across disciplines, and discover their passion and place at Western and in our greater community.   

Your support helps ensure we connect people to the resources, expertise, and collections essential to their academic success, lifelong learning, and community. You can learn more about making a gift to Western Libraries at our WWU Give Day page. And thank you so much for your support of Western Libraries, of WWU students, staff, and faculty, and of the work we are doing together.
