Q&A: Which library was the library before the W.E.B. Dubois Library?

History of the Library:

The original library was on the first floor of the Old Chapel and was open in 1886.
In 1935 the Library was moved to the new building, Goodell Hall where it resided until 1973.
Finally it moved to the current location, to the W.E.B. Du Bois Library in 1973.  Although when it was first opened it was referred to as the University Tower Library.  It was called the Du Bois Library in February 1996.
