After more than 60 years as the intellectual heart of Homewood campus, the Milton S. Eisenhower Library is about to reopen, reimagined for a new generation. When its doors open in January, students, faculty, and researchers will have modern new spaces—perfect for letting ideas take flight.
This just in: we’ve learned that there’s room for Jay—Hopkins’ very own feathered mascot—to set up his nest inside the renovated library!
Now, YOU can decide where Jay will settle into his new home.
Will he be the life of the library, perched where connections and conversations happen? Will he find a quiet corner for deep focus and discovery? Or will he choose a spot where he can take in the energy of everyone who walks through the doors?
Make your gift today to support Eisenhower Library and help Jay find his perfect perch. Your generosity supports a vital campus resource and gives you a fun opportunity to be part of the library’s next chapter!
Where will Jay perch? Will it be:
🎓 Q Level, where Jay can rub shoulders with graduate students in their new Graduate Student Study Commons?
🌍 M Level, where Jay can help visitors and keep an eye on our exhibition gallery and Special Collections?
💻 A Level, where Jay can get expert support from one of our Research and Instruction Librarians?
👥 B Level, where Jay can nurture big ideas with his peers in one of our many group study rooms?
📗 C Level, where Jay can immerse himself in focused work in the two-story Grand Reading Room?
📚 D Level, where Jay can browse the book stacks and peek at rare treasures in the Special Collections Vault?
