Going Green in the Library
Free Nylink Community Brown Bag Session
Co-sponsored with RRLC
12 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.
Roberts Wesleyan College, Rochester, NY
Cost: Free! [Registration]
Many libraries are going green: using environmentally sustainable products and practices, assessing their environmental footprint and even building new “Green” libraries that lessen the impact of the library on the environment.
Are you currently doing any of the following or interested in learning more about:
- Built a LEED certified library?
- Practicing energy efficiency through the use of natural light and better lighting design?
- Recycling paper and other waste?
- Utilizing green energy such as wind or solar power?
- Practicing water conservation through low-flow plumping and irrigating with reclaimed water?
- Purchasing new energy star rated equipment?
Come to Roberts Wesleyan College to see their new green library, hear about ways others have begun to implement environmentally sound practices and share your own experiences with “Going Green.”
Bring your lunch and ideas and we will provide goodies and drinks.
After our lunch take a tour of Robert Wesleyan’s new library!
