A couple of months ago we created a Green Team for our library. Our goal is to get our library (Mills College, F.W. Olin Library) on the map with a certificate showing our compliance with the green standards.
So far, so good. We've done our audits, participated in power-down days, switched out our lights, and met a number of times with the University's environmental representative.
At present we're looking into getting power strips for all plugs so we can more easily unplug equipment.
Our next steps are to bring more awareness into the library community, such as:
- less paper usage
- only turn on lights when you are using them
Are you working on a greening project? We'd like to hear about it.
