Honor with Books
Honor with Books provides a meaningful way to pay lasting tribute to a special person while making an important contribution to future generations of students who depend on the top-ranked UCLA Library. With a minimum gift of $100 to the Honor with Books Fund, a personalized bookplate is placed in one newly purchased book in the subject area of the donor's choosing (arts, biomedicine, humanities, music, science and engineering, or social sciences). The gift supports a critical acquisitions need, and the loved one, friend, special teacher, or colleague will be remembered for years to come each time a student, faculty member, or visiting scholar opens the book distinguished with his or her bookplate.
Remember Honor with Books for:
- Graduations
- Memorial Tributes
- Professional Honors and Retirements
- Weddings and Anniversaries
- Birthdays
