Moving time
Mari Olson The Daily Republic

With the finishing touches being added to the George and Eleanor McGovern Library and Center for Leadership and Public Service at Dakota Wesleyan University, Mitchell, librarians and volunteers are working throughout the week to finish unpacking about 75,000 volumes in about 5,000 boxes.

Four librarians from Augustana College, Sioux Falls, came Monday to help with the move. In the foreground is Karen Bruns, DWU cataloger; at left, Jenny Meiners, from Augustana College’s library; at right, Jan Brue Enright, Augustana librarian; and not shown is Judith Howard, Augustana librarian.

The grand opening and dedication of the facility will be Oct. 5-7. The facility will house a library, classrooms, offices, a coffeehouse, the Student Success Center, the new campus bookstore and the McGovern Center for Leadership and Public Service.
