Library

Help us to continue to provide a library that is worthy of Goldsmiths.

Thank you for seeking further information about supporting the Library.

Our students often have the daily frustration of not being able to borrow the books they need during their studies. We want to address this and provide a library worthy of Goldsmiths.

Our books work much harder than the average book in a university library. Each of our full-time students borrowed on average 83 books last year, whereas in similar universities the average was just 64!  We spend well above average on our library but with your help we could improve our library even more:

A one off donation of £50* would actually be worth £93.75 and could allow us to purchase four more books.

If ten people were to give £10* per month for three years we could raise a massive £6,000. That would buy enough books for a brand new subject at Masters level.

*Figures include Gift Aid and the Government’s Matched Giving Scheme

We are a distinguished University with a proud history and an exciting future ahead of us. Help us to look that future head on and provide a library that is really worthy of Goldsmiths.  

Whatever you feel you could afford it really is gratefully received. Thank you.
