Ever since its inauguration on Gwanak Campus in 1974, the SNU Library has been the heart of the university by providing students and researchers with collective academic support. To fulfill its responsibilities as the university’s research center, the library launched a major fundraising campaign called the ‘Friends of the SNU Library’ in March 2012, in hope of building a new facility with high-end technology that serves the needs of students and researchers. Thanks to the generous donation of 60 billion KRW from Kwanjeong Educational Foundation and 960 participants of ‘The Friends of the SNU Library’, Kwanjeong was completed on February 2015. Now, we are launching a new fund-raising campaign for the remodeling of the main building and we would appreciate your support.
