MARK YOUR CALENDAR! OUR NEXT RAISE YOUR PICK GIVING DAY IS ON APRIL 17, 2024!
UTEP Library

Great universities have great libraries. And great libraries evolve with the times. Today's students and faculty still check out books – but they also need access to online databases, eBooks, and other electronic resources. The furious pace of technological change has transformed how we learn, and the UTEP Library continues to meet these challenges. 

With more than 1.2 million physical volumes and providing electronic access to over 1.2 million eBooks plus 121,000 scholarly journals, the UTEP Library is the academic heart of our university. These materials – at a cost of more than $3.1 million per year – fuel student and faculty research and enrich the classroom experience for 25,000 students each year.  

With a gift to the UTEP Library, you can help us meet the university community’s need for timely, relevant information. Your support will help us provide additional resources such as physical and electronic books, online databases and academic journals to our students as well as necessary programming that will enhance our learning community. 

Investing in the UTEP Library is an investment in the future of our students and the university. As we adapt to meet new challenges and needs, your support is more important than ever.  

Thank you for giving to the UTEP Library on Raise Your Pick Giving Day! Every donation – no matter what size – counts. Picks up and GO MINERS!
