DONORS SOUGHT FOR WRIGHT STATE
LIBRARIES' ADOPT-A-JOURNAL CAMPAIGN

The Friends of the Wright State University Libraries are seeking new friends for the Adopt-A-Journal campaign. The campaign helps fund subscriptions to scholarly journals for the Paul Laurence Dunbar and Fordham Health Sciences Libraries at Wright State. Price increases have threatened the continuation of certain subscriptions in the libraries. The campaign will help the libraries maintain the quality of their journal collections.

Individuals, groups and organizations may adopt a three-year subscription to a journal. Adoption of a selected journal title enables the libraries to continue to offer that title to Wright State students, faculty, staff and the general public. The entire amount of every donation is used to pay for the journal subscription. Sponsors will be identified on bookplates attached to each bound volume of their adopted journal titles. Donations are processed through the Wright State University Foundation and are considered charitable gifts.

Since May, more than $2,500 has been contributed to the Adopt-A-Journal campaign by members and organizations associated with the Friends of the Libraries. Anyone interested in adopting a journal or making a donation toward a subscription may contact the libraries for a list of titles and an Adopt-A-Journal form. For more information on the Adopt-A-Journal program, call (937) 775-2380.
