Gallery of Benefactors - Edinburgh University Library

Upper Library in Old College The Gallery of Benefactors commemorates and celebrates donations, bequests and other benefactions to Edinburgh University Library, since its founding in 1580 by Clement Litill's bequest.

Those displayed have been carefully selected. The Library is always ready to consider adding others, retrospectively as well as prospectively.

Each Gallery contains information about the benefactors and benefactions, including illustrations and links to further information where possible.
