Lindsay Young Endowment Fund
The Lindsay Young Endowment was established in 1989 by Lindsay Young "for special acquisitions that will make a qualitative difference in the collection of the Libraries" in the humanities. Nominations for the Lindsay Young Endowment Fund are gathered from humanities faculty and librarians each spring semester, when an announcement and nominations form are distributed to every humanities faculty member. Research sets over $500 are eligible; the endowment does not fund subscriptions. Selections for purchase are finalized from the nominations by a committee of humanities teaching faculty and humanities librarians and sent to the Dean of Libraries and the Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences for approval. To ensure balanced acquisitions, every humanities teaching department and interdisciplinary program is encouraged to submit nominations. The Humanities Coordinator, in conjunction with the Libraries' Collection Development & Management Department, is responsible for managing the Lindsay Young fund.
