Make your mark on greatness. Leave a lasting impression.

To ensure that Cooley students have the very best resources available to them, the school has expanded its law library in Lansing. The library has nearly doubled in size to over 138,600 square feet, becoming the nation's second largest law library in physical size. The $6 million project is funded in part by Cooley's first-ever capital fund-raising effort called the Campaign for Knowledge.

The campaign has two components: (1) an endowed scholarship fund for students with financial need and (2) the renovation of the Town Center Building next to the Brennan Law Library into the Center for Research and Study which provides more student study space, student gathering space, library stack area, conference rooms, and small classrooms.

If you are interested in contributing to the Campaign for Knowledge, please call the Cooley Development Office at (517) 371-5140, ext. 2045 or visit cooley.edu/campaignforknowledge.
