Fund the library

Endowments and cash donations help the library to fulfill the needs of the Missouri S&T community.

Shape our collections

Through making a monetary donation to the library's collections you provide long-term access to materials for our students, staff, and faculty.

Shape our spaces and services

The library is constantly looking for ways to improve and revitalize the spaces we provide our students, staff, and faculty.  We want to be able to provide spaces that allow our users to succeed.  Since our community has a variety of needs we must provide different types of spaces to accommodate individual and group study, social interaction, and quiet reflection.  As a science and technology university, having technology in the library is critical to success.  We hope to provide students with technology throughout the library and especially in our study rooms.
