History--Biography
The Brandeis University National Women's Committee (BUNWC) is an autonomous non-profit membership organization dedicated to raising funds for the University libraries; it consists of over 55,000 members in 115 chapters throughout the United States. In addition to raising money for books, the committee supports library endowment funds, such as the Library Trust Fund. The BUNWC also sponsors study groups and other educational and leadership programs, such as the University-on-Wheels program in which Brandeis faculty members give lectures at local chapters.

The governing structure of the BUNWC consists of a National President who presides over an Executive Committee and a National Board. An Executive Director and a professional staff support this governing structure. The BUNWC was founded in 1948 to help develop the library collection, since at that time the library consisted of only a few thousand volumes that were inherited from Middlesex University. Mrs. Harry L. Michaels was the founder and first president of the BUNWC. From 1948 to 1995, the Women's Committee raised over $60 million in support of the University Libraries. In 1996 the BUNWC celebrated the library's acquisition of its millionth book. The BUNWC also publishes a newsletter, "Imprint."
