Robert I. & Swannanoa Kenney Phillips Libraries Endowment

Robert I. & Swannanoa Kenney Phillips

Dr. Robert Kenney Phillips, professor of English at Lander University, has established a permanent endowment in memory of his mother, Swannanoa Kenney Phillips, and in honor of his father, Robert I. Phillips. Dr. Phillips' gift reflects his parents' long-time support of and interest in the University libraries. Mr. Phillips is a life member of the University South Caroliniana Society as was his wife, and Dr. Phillips and his wife are life members of the Thomas Cooper Society.

Funds generated from the Phillips Endowment will be used to preserve historic materials and to acquire new materials for both the South Caroliniana and Thomas Cooper Libraries. A particular area of collecting emphasis will be literature representing the various majority and minority cultures of Great Britain and America to support undergraduate education.
