Hospital ArchivesThe Galters contributed $10 million for the renovation, restoration and expansion of the Medical School library in 1990. Through their generosity, the library expanded its physical space to 45,000 net square feet, added additional user seating, expanded new staff offices and work areas, and constructed stack space to accommodate growth in our print collections. The upgraded facility allowed the merger of the Medical School and Dental School libraries into one cohesive health sciences library, and a new technological base was installed to prepare the Galter Library for the 21st century.

The Galters are long-time friends of the Medical School and Northwestern Memorial Hospital and have made numerous contributions in support of health care and biomedical research.
