This holiday season we hope that you will consider donating to the University Libraries Excellence Fund, especially on #GivingTuesday.The library does a lot with the money it receives, but we can do more. Your contributions would help us:
Remember, when donating, be sure to designate "University Libraries Excellence Fund" as the area for your gift. We welcome your participation and if you have ideas or suggestions about enhancements, innovations, funding opportunities, and community engagement connections for the library, please reach out to University Advancement or Dean John Barnett. We would love to hear from you and want to make the USC Upstate Library useful and inspiring.
On Veterans Day and throughout the year, we would like to acknowledge, honor, and celebrate America's veterans. We are especially grateful for and proud of Upstate students, staff, and faculty who have served in the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard.
To commemorate Veterans Day 2023, the Library's Displays Committee has mounted an exhibit of books, DVDs, and other materials in our collections that represent the service, accomplishments, and challenges of America's veterans. You can find this display on the Library's 1st floor just past the Research service desk, adjacent to the Library's book stacks. The materials in the collection are available for borrowing.
In addition, we are also exhibiting a selection of Veterans Day posters in the Library. This exhibit includes the 2023 poster pictured here, as well as a selection of posters from past Veterans Day commemorations. These posters are located along the wall near the main staircase on the Library's 1st floor.
You can find these and other images by visiting the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' Veterans Day poster gallery via the Department's Flickr page. All images are in the public domain and free to use and display.
Please join us in thanking and celebrating America's and Upstate's veterans for their service and commitment to the nation.
