  We report on the detection of a gamma-ray source at the position of the
nearby star-forming galaxy (SFG) M83, which is found from our analysis of 14
years of the data obtained with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on-board {\it
Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi)}. The source is weakly detected, with a
significance of $\sim 5\sigma$, and its emission can be described with an
exponentially cutoff power law. At a distance of 4.61\,Mpc, the source's
gamma-ray luminosity is $\sim 1.4\times 10^{39}$\,erg\,s$^{-1}$, roughly along
the correlation line between the \gr\ and IR luminosities determined for nearby
SFGs. Because of the weak detection, the source spectrum can not be used for
checking its similarity with those of other SFGs. Given the positional matches
and the empirical expectation for gamma-ray emission from M83 due to the
galaxy's star-forming activity, we conclude that the gamma-ray source is the
likely counterpart to m83. The detection thus adds another member to the group
of approximately a dozen SFGs, whose \gr\ emissions mostly have a cosmic-ray
origin.
