Q: What do my membership dollars support?
A: All moneys raised by the Friends of the SMU Libraries through both membership and fundraising directly funds the annual grants program. Each Spring, the Grants Committee meets to review grant proposals from all of the libraries for things like books, electronic resources, equipment and staff support. The committee then awards as many of the grants as possible from the funds raised throughout the year.
