A gift to the Arthur Lakes Library supports all of CSM: students and faculty, intellectual life and community life.   No matter what the amount, gifts can help enrich our holdings, expand our resources, preserve our collections and improve our services. 

Your contribution will help to promote the mission of the Library:

The Arthur Lakes Library is committed to excellence in providing access to information for the Colorado School of Mines community.  As an integral part of the academic process, the Library supports and plays an important role in providing for the information needs of the Arthur Lakes Library users.  In order to prepare a foundation for life-long learning, the Library will provide appropriate instruction and resources.
