Come See the New Boatwright!

Boatwright has changed tremendously over the summer, adding more study and quiet spaces for students and patrons, while also providing new and improved collaborative areas for campus. The renovation was completed in August 2012, with minor changes still planned throughtout the semester. The tower doors were reopened as a new entry point through the Media Resource Center and our Galvin Rare Book Room has received a superficial update as well.  Stop by and see the changes at Boatwright!

The Friends of Boatwright Memorial Library was founded in 1971 by alumni, faculty, staff, and supporters of the University of Richmond. The Friends acknowledge the central importance of the Library to the intellectual and cultural life of the University of Richmond and strive to increase public awareness of the wide array of resources and services available through the Library, to expand success to these programs, and to encourage generous giving in support of our excellent Library. Gifts to the Library help us to support one of the finest undergraduate libraries in the nation and a major resource for the state.
