This fund contributes to building and maintaining the academic collections that support teaching, learning and research at Oakland University. 21^st century library collections are primarily comprised of subscription online and digital resources that increase in price annually. The Library Gifts-Books & OnLine Resources fund ensures that the OU Libraries will continue to provide these resources to our students and faculty in the future.
