Working with University Librarian Virginia Steel, UCLA Library's new executive director of development Stephanie Kimura will help spearhead the library’s fundraising endeavors while enhancing its contributions to UCLA's Centennial Campaign.
With a $52 million fundraising goal, UCLA Library is striving to enhance collections, support teaching and learning services, develop programs and build endowments.
“The Library touches every discipline and field of study at UCLA, from the arts to business, from engineering to English literature,” noted Kimura. “Our donors have a wide range of interests, and they appreciate the impact the Library has on groundbreaking research and student success. I feel lucky to be a part of the UCLA Library.”
Kimura received her B.A. in English from UCLA in 1989 and graduated from the UCLA Anderson School Executive Program in 2008. Having started her career in magazine journalism, she brings 15 years of experience in fundraising and capital campaigns to UCLA Library.
