Support the University of Dayton Libraries
The Libraries Dean’s Fund for Excellence empowers us to respond dynamically to the evolving needs of Roesch Library, the Marian Library, and Archives and Special Collections in our areas of greatest need. Contributions from One Day, One Dayton 2026 will enable us to create vibrant, student-centered learning and study spaces, invest in innovative technologies, and broaden opportunities for students to engage with our distinctive University of Dayton and Catholic Collections. Your support helps us foster academic success, preserve our rich heritage, and ensure that our Libraries remain at the forefront of educational excellence.
