Giving to Kimbel Library

Thank you for your interest in making a gift to Kimbel Library.

Coastal Carolina University welcomes gifts in the forms of endowments, bequests, special gifts, or gifts of books and equipment for the enhancement of the library and its collections. Your gift will enhance library services and programs, including building collections, improving facilities, and providing the technology needed to guarantee student success.

Kimbel Library welcomes gifts of books, manuscripts, and other library materials that support the academic programs offered by Coastal Carolina University. Gifts made to Kimbel Library add materials which otherwise could not be acquired through normal funding processes and, in turn, enhance the quality of the resources available for students, faculty, and the local community. Your support through gifts of library materials is very much appreciated.

Donations of books or other library materials are governed by the library's collection management gift policy. An online form is available to make donations of books or other library materials. For questions about making donations of books or other library materials, please contact Michael Lackey, Head of Collection Management and Systems at (843) 349-2404.

The Kimbel Library is currently planning for an information commons, which will be open for student use 24 hours/day, five days a week. This addition will provide state-of-the-art technology, collaborative work spaces, and an inviting environment to relax, reflect, and research. For more information about the proposed information commons, contact Barbara Burd, Dean of Library Services, at (843) 349-2401. The Office of University Advancement welcomes inquiries about giving opportunities. You can contact this office at (843) 349-2588.
