Student Success

  • GSU Fund for the University Library: This flexible fund supports our areas of greatest need, providing students with access to current technology, collaborative learning spaces, professional expertise and rich information resources. 
  • Library Research Award Fund: Your gift to the Library Research Award will help doctoral students in any discipline fund travel to a museum, archive or library to complete their dissertation research. After the challenges presented by the pandemic, this award can help doctoral candidates get back on track. It also provides prize money to 3-Minute Thesis winners, presented by the University Library and the Graduate School. 

Dynamic Spaces

  • Library Future Fund: The University Library seeks to be a national model of the innovative research library, providing dynamic physical and virtual spaces in support of students’ needs for technology, connection and creativity. The Library Future Fund helps the University Library continue the physical transformation of the University Library.

The 50th Anniversary of the Special Collections & Archives

  • Dr. David B. Gracy II Graduate Assistant Endowment: In 2021, the University Library will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Special Collections & Archives at Georgia State University. In honor of our founding archivist, Dr. David B. Gracy, we have established an endowed graduate research assistantship working in the Special Collections & Archives. This will help us cover the cost of one graduate student working hands-on with the materials housed at Georgia State.
