Give to Penrose Library

Make an Impact on the Entire University of Denver Community

The University of Denver's Penrose Library is the heart of the DU community, supporting the academic excellence of its students and faculty, even during construction of the Academic Commons at Penrose Library. Your gift to Penrose Library helps provide opportunities for the entire University of Denver campus.  

The mission of the University of Denver is to promote learning by engaging with students in advancing scholarly inquiry, cultivating critical and creative thought, and generating knowledge. Our active partnerships with local and global communities contribute to a sustainable common good. DU libraries empower this mission. Your contribution implements it.

Through access to more than three million items (including books, periodicals, journals, digital resources, microfilms, and DVDs) Penrose Library empowers DU students and faculty to think bigger and expand their learning.  Through community spaces in the library, students meet with one another and their professors, socialize, study, and learn.

Penrose Library is committed to excellence. By providing the resources, services and space needed for students and faculty to thrive, Penrose Library enables DU to offer an extraordinary teaching and learning environment.
