Carrier Library will make a transformational impact on this campus for generations to come. Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of donors, JMU has already surpassed $5.2 million in philanthropic support for the library beyond the Commonwealth of Virginia’s investment in the renovation and expansion. The momentum continues to grow, creating exciting opportunities to further elevate Carrier Library’s campuswide impact. By naming a space in the library, you will help shape a vibrant academic and community hub that directly supports every JMU student and faculty member.
Make a gift of $1,939 to honor Carrier Library's first year (1939), and you will be featured on the Library Patrons Bookshelf in the renovated Carrier Library. Your name — or a loved one’s name — will be immortalized on the spine of a sculptural book as part of a one-of-a-kind display.
Please contact Cynthia Cline for more information about Carrier Library naming opportunities.
