    The Libraries at Mason, Spring 2018

We completed renovations on the second floor of the old Fenwick building, bringing our music collection together in a Music Library and launching our Digital Scholarship Center.

    Happy New Year 2019! The Libraries had a great year in 2018, highlights of which we are pleased to share with you in the following pages. Mason’s second annual Giving Day was a huge success for the Libraries—with the generous contributions of many we were able to fully fund the Student Assistant Scholarship Endowment for the Libraries and offer our first two scholarship awards to two deserving library student assistants.
