There are eight endowed or special funds for rare books, including three endowed by the Mailhes family. These include a fund for books broadly related to Philosophy, a fund for books on cats (the Charlee LaChatte fund), and a fund for books on dogs (the Awful Annie fund). The Monroe Labouisse Fund, Horace Renegar Collection, and a small fund dependent annually on specific donation for rare book purchases (Rare Books - Gifts) are used more generally across disciplines for rare purchases. The Chapman fund is used for books on the fine arts, including fine bindings and artists books.
