Help Radford University Libraries Support Teaching, Learning, Research, and Student Well-Being!

The Radford University Libraries are central to supporting faculty and students’ teaching, learning, research, and belonging. We envision our Libraries as responsive systems of support and student success hubs on each of our campuses that empower our students and faculty to learn, teach, and conduct research of all kinds.


The University Libraries are also dedicated to meeting the broader needs of our students and faculty. This includes resources for coursework, licenses for up-to-date learning tools, cutting-edge medical tools, online simulation activities, and study spaces designed to accommodate diverse learning styles. Additionally, we provide essential resources that enhance student well-being, such as free menstrual supplies and toiletries. Your financial support ensures that our libraries remain vital destinations where students can maximize their learning experiences and thrive academically, personally, and professionally.




We take pride in creating warm and welcoming spaces that allow students to simply be. Our libraries often serve as home bases for students to study, meet with friends, and prepare for their futures. A unique feature of our University Libraries is that we offer free personal care items that students can access discreetly. This exemplifies our commitment to fostering a sense of belonging and supporting students’ holistic needs. With your support, we can continue offering these resources at McConnell Library in Radford and at the RUC Library in Roanoke.

By donating to the Libraries Fund, you are directly contributing to student success, ensuring every Highlander has access to the tools and resources they need to achieve their goals. Thank you for recognizing the transformative role our Libraries play in the lives of Radford University students.
