Fall 2008 Update
Fundraising is in progress for a new Library and Academic Commons
facility for Oxford College. The University has made a commitment to
fund 50 percent of the cost of this exciting project. At this point,
we have raised over two million dollars for the project. Hugh
Tarbutton, Jr. is leading the Board of Counselors' fundraising
committee for the new library. Personally, he gave a significant gift
to name the Exhibit space in the new facility in honor of Fran Elizer,
former library staff member and cherished member of the Oxford
community. We have received additional gifts to name several study
spaces and the Library Director's office. A description of the project
and a list of naming opportunities in included in the fundraising
brochure.
