HOW FRIENDS HAVE HELPED...
Just look at what Friends have helped to make possible in the library:
- ”special places” throughout the library,
- larger browsing collections, including audio-books and dvd’s,and
- events that bring significant writers and scholars like Robert Bly, Richard Peck and Vernon Burton to the UIS campus.
- Mary Jane’s, a wi-fi café on level one of Brookens
As a Friend, you will receive the satisfaction of belonging to an organization that enhances the vibrant intellectual life of a great university.
AND IN RETURN...
As a Friend of Brookens Library, you'll recieve
- invitations to lectures and programs including the annual Friends-only membership event,
- borrowing privileges,
- a twice-yearly newsletter
- and the satisfaction of belonging to a group of wonderful book-loving people.
Remember, if your annual support is at the Carl Sandburg Circle level ($2500 or greater), you will automatically become a member of the Chancellor’s Circle, gaining the additional distinction and recognition of being among UIS’ most generous annual donors.
