Grants and Donations

The Newark Campus Library has been the very favored recipient of two generous financial donations to be used to build a new facility. Just prior to his death, John Warner, a local businessman, donated $4.5 million towards the building of a new library facility. His wife, Christine Warner, then donated $5 million dollar in a trust fund to OSU Newark and another $5 million dollar trust to COTC, both to be used in the building of the new facility.
