DSU’s Karl Mundt Library patrons putting together world’s largest puzzle

Dakota State University’s Karl Mundt Library is currently working to put together the world’s largest puzzle.

Mary Francis, Interim Director of the Library, first heard about the world’s largest puzzle available for purchase from Costco from fellow DSU employee Vickie Bird.

The conversation inspired Francis to order the puzzle for the Karl Mundt Library after measuring to be sure the library had a wall space to display the 29-foot completed puzzle.

The 60-thousand-piece puzzle is made up of 60 one-thousand piece puzzles that fit together to form the complete image.

Anyone can put together the puzzles on the first floor of the Karl Mundt Library in Madison.  People can stay updated on the puzzle’s progress by visiting the library’s Facebook page.
