News & Activities
Holiday Fundraiser - The total for the staff contributions to the Libraries' holiday fundraiser was an astounding $463.33!!! LSA will match that total, so that makes over $900 to spend on our adopted family!!! The family we sponsored had a great holiday because of the generosity of the Libraries' staff. Just to pull one thing from their list, there is a five-year-old girl who will be getting her first bike this holiday season, thanks to the Libraries' staff. Thank you also to our shoppers, who will be purchasing all of the presents in the next few days: Betty Mayweather, Jeanette Morgan (assisted by Mary Willoughby), Amber Prentiss, Sandra Riggs and Amy Watts.

Community Services
LSA is always looking for volunteers to help with our community service activities which include: collecting supplies for the Athens Tutorial Program, fundraising for local animal charities, and sponsoring holiday gifts through the Joyce Ervin Open Hearts Center.
Events Planning
Some of the annual events hosted by LSA are: the ASSET Awards Ice Cream Social, Library Staff Art Exhibit, Student Appreciation Luncheon, and Thanksgiving Luncheon. Click here to learn more.
Fundraising
We would be unable to support such a wide variety programs if not for our fundraisers. Each year we hold a Spring and Fall Book Sale, Valentine's Day Flower Sale, LSA Dues Drive, and Staff Cookbook Sale.
Staff Services
In addition to the activities listed above, we also offer the following services to UGA Libraries staff: staff recognition of personal events, handling of formal grievances, book ordering, and the archiving of the oral and written history of the UGA Libraries.
