Support our Growth
James Madison University’s ascent to national prominence demands a Carrier Library that matches our our irrefutable rise.
To compete for top students and faculty, we must renovate and expand Carrier into a dynamic hub for learning, research and collaboration. Modern libraries are no longer just book repositories — they’re vital centers where ideas are pursued, created and shared for the common good.
As JMU’s most-visited building and largest learning space, the new Carrier Library will become the heart of campus life — uniting students and faculty across disciplines to solve problems, spark innovation and shape a better future.
