Cowles Library has started a process that will lead to a revamp and updating of the master plan for the library facility. Drake has contracted with FEH Design, a major Midwest architectural firm, to undertake the design study. FEH will employ a highly collaborative process to develop the master plan. Initial conversations with the Drake community have started and will continue through the summer and early fall. The results of the planning process are slated to be completed during the latter part of 2016.
