Donors who give to the Unrestricted Library Gifts Fund will help the Libraries take advantage of new opportunities to provide important information resources and services for the University’s programs and research needs.  Making an unrestricted gift allows us to apply the funds to wherever they will have the most impact.

For example, unrestricted gifts might support: the implementation of exciting new technology initiatives in the Libraries’ Learning Commons; the redesign of library space to support librarian-and-student research consultations; and the employment of part-time librarians who will help provide information literacy instruction for the University’s burgeoning student population, among other initiatives. 

All monetary gifts to Oakland University are handled by the Oakland University Foundation and can be made online using the

Oakland Foundation Online Giving Form
