Planned Giving

We urge you to include the University Library in your will or estate plan. A deferred gift can enable you to make a more significant contribution than you imagine, provide income for your family, reduce taxes, and establish a lasting legacy for you and your family at the University Library.

Planned gifts include:

• Bequests and Living Trusts
• Gifts of Appreciated Stock
• Charitable Gift Annuities
• Charitable Remainder Trusts
• Deferred Charitable Gift
• Annuities Bargain Sales
• Gifts of Retirement Assets
• Gifts of Life Insurance
• Charitable Lead Trusts
• Gifts of Real Estate

Please refer to the university’s gift planning guide for comprehensive planned giving information, which provides real life stories, giving calculators, and examples of various ways to fulfill your goals. We hope will consider this method of enhancing the library’s future and leaving a lasting legacy that will benefit our students, faculty, scholars and visitors for generations to come.
