UW-Oshkosh Renovates Polk Library with $500,000 Bequest

A gift from a former UW-Oshkosh student allowed the Polk Library to renovate its circulation area and lobby, as well as create an endowment for digital, educational and research materials. “The gift allows us to transform one of the busiest study areas of the library into a much better learning environment where students can comfortably work alone or in small groups,” said Library Director Patrick Wilkinson in an article in the Oshkosh Northwestern.
