Funding Priorities
Introduction Text

Your contributions to these funds give LSU Libraries the opportunity to both create and share resources, learning opportunities, and programs. Without the partnership of loyal LSU alumni, faculty, and other generous benefactors like you, LSU Libraries could not provide vital instructional and research materials demanded by today's students and faculty at Louisiana's flagship institution.
