The Campaign For Salisbury University
SU Libraries
The Guerrieri Academic Commons includes substantial space for the Nabb Research Center, allowing SU to unite and expand our special collections, including rare books and manuscripts, archives and other resources.
SU Libraries and Academic Resources
Salisbury University Libraries cultivates a superior learning community by providing user-centered services and information resources in an engaging environment. SU Libraries is dedicated to the free exchange of ideas and excellence in learning, teaching, scholarship, creativity and service.
The Patricia R. Guerrieri Academic Commons, the location of SU’s main library, is a place to study, master the art of research, collaborate, borrow a laptop, cram for an exam, work on a project, get a book and meet friends. It’s a center for learning, discovery and interaction – and students say, “it’s the place to be.”
The Edward H. Nabb Research Center for Delmarva History and Culture is a treasure trove of resources, with materials gathered in a first-class archival facility with improved access for faculty, staff, students and the community. The Dr. Ernie Bond Curriculum Resource Center also supports the Seidel School of Education. From finding academic resources, to using technology, to research, SU Libraries serves students and the greater community.

The Library Is The Place To Be
For years, SU students studied in what some considered one of the worst campus libraries in the country. That changed in 2016 when SU opened the $117 million Patricia R. Guerrieri Academic Commons, the main location of SU Libraries. The library was intentionally placed in the heart of main campus to be the epicenter of the academic community.READ MORE
Why Give to SU?
Transform Tomorrow
Our alumni are our legacy. They are the teachers in our classrooms, the nurses in our hospitals, the civil servants in our government and the entrepreneurs creating jobs in our communities. Our diverse and dynamic students need a broad educational experience to prepare them for a challenging future. During their lifetimes, they will make multiple career changes, solve problems we cannot imagine and live with dizzying change. We produce the continuous learners who will be an integral part of our society and communities in the 21st century. Together, we can provide scholarships and resources to unlock students’ limitless potential.
Shape Success
Learning is an evolutionary journey of discovery about self, knowledge and the world. Students learn truths about life on athletic fields, with clubs and organizations, and in the classroom and community. Guiding them are SU faculty and staff, who become trusted mentors and role models. Our teacher-scholars provide excellent learning opportunities. Coaches help student-athletes compete and succeed. Other caring professionals support intellectual and emotional growth. The heart of our University, they all play critical roles in supporting each student. Together, we can help dedicated faculty and staff open doors and inspire unequaled experiences.
Create Connections
SU is an integral part of the Delmarva Peninsula. As a regional, comprehensive university, we not only educate students but serve as a resource for our neighbors, with centers and institutes, events and activities, performing ensembles and artists, and countless opportunities for learning and interaction. Civic engagement is a pillar of students’ education – and our campus is a hub for cultural experiences, new ideas and entrepreneurial thought. We play a vital role in the area we call home, creating opportunities and inspiring action. Together, we can enrich collaborations woven across the region, strengthening our communities.
