HGSC : Support the Center Join us in preserving the past while creating a peaceful future. Consider a gift in support of the USF Libraries Holocaust and Genocide Studies Center. Opportunities to contribute include: Genocide Studies & Special Collections Library The Genocide Studies & Special Collections Library facility will house the Holocaust & Genocide Studies Center while providing faculty, staff, students, and the general public with a state-of-the-art facility for classes, collections, quiet study, collaboration, community programs, exhibitions, and the technological infrastructure required to operate a global, internationally renowned center and world-class Special Collections Department. The Holocaust & Genocide Studies Center Endowment This endowment provides support necessary to operate an internationally recognized center renowned for the quality of its collections, research, teaching, outreach, and action. Refugee Scholar Endowment The USF Libraries Holocaust & Genocide Studies Center will support refugee scholars by providing the institutional help they need to continue critical work and to educate the outside world about the history, culture, and plight of their homeland. Collection Endowment To meet the information resource needs of researchers at USF and around the world, the Center will establish an endowment to acquire collections of international distinction. This includes rare and recently published books and serials, manuscripts and institutional records, and digital collections made accessible through the USF Libraries’ Oral History Program, USC Shoah Foundation Institute’s Visual History Archive, and Gale Electronic Resources’ Testaments to the Holocaust. Emerging partnerships with scholars, journalists, and non-governmental organizations offer additional opportunities to build world-class collections. Graduate and Postdoctoral Fellowship Endowment Scholars and their work inform the public discourse and, over time, influence how society understands its collective past, responds to current crises, and plans for the future. Graduate and Postdoctoral Fellowships will annually afford six USF students and one recent Ph.D. graduate from around the world the opportunity to work with senior scholars in their chosen academic discipline in order to develop new analyses of the causes, education, and prevention of genocide. Curatorship The named curator for the USF Libraries Holocaust & Genocide Studies Center will plan and manage all aspects of the Center’s mission. The curator will monitor global collection development trends and new forms of scholarly communication in the field of genocide and prevention; collaborate with information specialists responsible for collection development in related disciplines; serve as liaison to institutional faculty that teach or conduct research in the field, as well as to genocide studies institutions globally; create research guides and digital resources and provide consultation and instruction aimed at embedding relevant information resources in existing and emerging courses; design and lead programming initiatives to increase USF’s impact and visibility; and collaborate on grants and fundraising initiatives related to the Center’s mission. Community Engagement Endowment - In support of events and exhibitions To further its mission to educate a global audience on the causes, treatment, and prevention of genocide, the Center will expand its public programming in the Tampa Bay region and via the Internet to people worldwide through an annual international conference, regular lectures, symposia, exhibitions, teacher training, K-12 curriculum development, and opportunities for public service.
