Make a Financial Donation
Since its inception, the IDL has become a cornerstone for researchers, journalists, and the public seeking the truth behind some of the most pressing issues of our time. Our collections include millions of pages of internal documents, marketing materials, and scientific studies, exposing the often-hidden workings of these powerful industries.
But here's the challenge: making this vast information freely available comes with a hidden cost. Preserving and providing access to these millions of pages requires robust servers and infrastructure, and unfortunately, many of these costs are not covered by traditional funding sources.
That’s where you come in. As you leverage the IDL materials, we hope you will consider making a gift to support our work.
By making a gift today, you will directly help us bridge this gap and ensure the IDL remains a beacon of transparency and accountability.
Donor support allows the Library to expand and maintain its collections by providing:
- addition of new collections
- item-level descriptive metadata for targeted search and retrieval
- reference and research services
- large datasets and downloads for computational analysis and AI research
- long-term secure document storage
- website maintenance and development
