Dr. Janis Bandelin (Director of Furman Libraries emerita) and her husband, Bill Fitzpatrick, have offered a challenge: if 100 donors give to the Libraries, they will donate $10,000. Every donation matters and will help us reach our goal of 100 donors!
This year, all Dins Day gifts to the Libraries will be directed to support and enhance our ongoing initiatives to strengthen diversity, equity, and inclusion:
- Supporting the efforts of our new visiting Archivist/Digital Collections Librarian, who will focus on Furman’s racial history and diversity
- Purchasing inclusive artwork to display in the libraries
- Transcribing/captioning video and audio files in support of digital equity
- Purchasing resources for LBGTQ+ history and research, including additions to the Queer Zine collection
- Expanding the Furman Oral History Program as a means of archiving diverse perspectives and experiences
How to Give
