Faculty, staff and students have been invited to attend an all-campus “Listening Session” to discuss the search for the next UMKC Provost. Three identical sessions will be held, two on the Volker Campus and one on Hospital Hill.

We need YOUR help to get iPads for our students and staff. University Libraries is ever-changing, which means we must evolve in new and innovative ways to provide access to meaningful and necessary resources.
Many, academic libraries like ours are able to provide the most current databases, journals and additional resources only in electronic formats. The good news about these e-resources is that they can be accessed by our students and faculty from any computer or mobile device with internet access. The challenge that we are rising to meet is that, unfortunately, not all of our students can afford to purchase an iPad of their own. That’s why we need your help!
We ask you for your support of the Operation iPad project. Your contribution of $10, $25, $50, $100, $300 or any amount you can afford will go towards providing students with more tools to succeed.
If you cannot donate, you can still help by spreading the word on social media. Please send the link to Operation iPad on to your friends, family, and colleagues. Your social network could make a difference in helping our students reach their full potential and realize their dreams.
