Latest Friends of the Library Gifts
As Chair of the Friends of the Weinberg Advisory Board, I am very
pleased to announce the 2000 Friends of the Library gifts for the
Weinberg Library. The hard work and dedication of the Friends of
the Library organization in building the

from reference books to Special Collections gems. The Friends Gift
