About the University Libraries 

 

Recent challenges have brought radical change to the lives of our students and faculty, and it has never been more apparent that the University Libraries is prepared to meet our users wherever they are.  From virtual Ask-a-Librarian services to point-and-click online access to millions of journal articles and book chapters, the Libraries continue to serve the community of learners at Ball State University. 

 

How Your Donation Helps 

 

In 2020, Ball State University Libraries will contribute funds raised on One Ball State Day to the ongoing development and implementation of scholarly resources and services, both online and in-person for Ball State University students.

 

The research and learning needs of modern-day undergraduate and graduate students are diverse and ever-evolving.  In a world in which information is abundantly available in many forms and places, the academic library plays a pivotal role in students’ evaluation of scholarly resources, production of new knowledge, exploration of new technologies, engagement in collaborative problem solving, and focused and contemplative study.   

 

Your contributions will allow Ball State University Libraries to continuously invest in student success by providing the access, materials, and assistance needed to accommodate these diverse needs.

 

Thank you for your support and consideration.  Your contributions are an important part of our continued success!
