Rare map collection and new endowments coming to USM in transformative gift from Osher family
(Artdaily.org)
 


University of Southern Maine President Glenn Cummings and Dr. Harold Osher announced an extraordinary gift — one of the world’s finest private collections of rare and historic maps and a new significant endowment — combining to become the largest gift in USM’s history and the largest ever to the University of Maine System. The announcement is part of a transformative partnership to support the one-of-a-kind Osher Map Library at USM and maintain it as a dynamic and innovative educational resource for the people of Portland and all of Maine. The endowment will be combined with funds currently held by the USM Foundation on behalf of Harold and Peggy Osher. `The University of Southern Maine and the Osher family have enjoyed a longstanding, deep partnership in stewarding the growth and sustenance of this important and invaluable collection. Today, we are taking that partnership to a new level.
