Because of the thoughtful philanthropy of IU alumni and supporters, IU Libraries has the unique opportunity to recognize outstanding student research and support impactful experiential learning. We are grateful to our donors whose generosity includes fellowships, scholarships, and awards that create a collaborative, exploratory environment for students to engage with our collections and build their professional toolkit in the information sciences and related fields.
There are also awards that recognize the achievements of IU Libraries’ faculty and staff as they support the mission of IU Libraries.
The IU Libraries’ Development office facilitates the establishment of fellowships, scholarships, and awards, by working with donors who wish to direct their philanthropy to IU Libraries. The IU Libraries Scholarship and Awards Committee, an Administrative Committee under the auspices of the Bloomington Library Faculty Council evaluates proposals and nominations, and then selects and notifies recipients.
