Support the Friends of Fondren Library

The Friends of Fondren Library (FoFL), founded in 1950, is dedicated to stimulating growth in library resources and facilities for the 21st century. Whether you're a Rice graduate, Rice faculty or staff member, community member or just a lover of knowledge, the Friends of Fondren Library needs your support as a member to enhance the Fondren Library’s collections and fulfill its ongoing need for resources and services.

I would like to support the Friends of Fondren Library

Due to COVID-19 campus protocols, the library building is open to Rice faculty, students and staff only. We are offering remote and virtual services for Friends members including books by mail and front-door book pickup. Electronic resources such as online journals and databases which must be accessed in the library building are not available at this time. Please email FoFL@rice.edu with any questions.
