Message from the University Librarian We welcome you to the George Mason University Libraries. Whether you are a friend of the University, a current student in your dorm or home, or a George Mason alumni visiting us via the web, the University Libraries appreciate your support. Your gift to the University Libraries allows us to provide outstanding research and academic services, which are fundamental to the Libraries' mission, and an integral part of George Mason's teaching and learning environment. A gift in any amount will allow the Libraries to improve collections or address other pressing needs. We welcome your donations to the University Libraries, which may be outright gifts of cash, books, manuscripts, or other materials, as well as bequests and other testamentary plans.
