Slide Show: University Bookstore Move a Success
The University Bookstore is in its new home in the Garland Center, after a long weekend of hard work. Starting Friday, July 23, and finishing up Sunday, July 25, a total of 97 University Bookstore employees moved everything from all the Bookstore shops in the Arkansas Union into the new facilities, unpacked them, and then filled the shelves and counters. The move took a total of 36 hours.
"Everyone including the movers, visitors and our staff were impressed with the efficiency of the move," said Ali Sadeghi, director of the University Bookstore.
