Enhance the Carrier Library project
The “new” Carrier Library is on the verge! Now is the time to make it the very best it can be.
Due to reopen in August 2026 after a comprehensive renovation and expansion, Carrier will become the heart of campus life. It will unite students and faculty across disciplines to solve problems, spark innovation and shape a better future.
It’s time to bring this project home so JMU can live up to its reputation and compete for top students and faculty.
Help bring Carrier Library to life and enrich every JMU student's Madison Experience.
