Become a Library Associate

The Stetson University Library Associates is a special group of individuals and organizations pledged to support the resources, services, and facilities of the duPont-Ball Library at Stetson University.

Why Become a Stetson Library Associate?

You can make a difference for students by supporting the library goals:

  • to be the University information center

  • to be the central intellectual meeting place on campus

Gifts to the library make it possible to purchase research materials, provide appropriate technology, and purchase enhancements to make the library more conducive to study and research.

As an Associate, you will receive:

  • Two Library Newsletters each year (mailed to Associates and also available on our website) to keep you aware of Library services and activities
