Continuing Education
Registration Form: Greener Library

Course Description

This two-day live online class will discuss current standards and practices for evaluating the environmental impact of existing, expanding or newly planned library facilities, and offer ideas for approaching environmental considerations relating to both physical plant and operating processes.

Ecological, social, and economic factors are prompting many libraries to consider “going green,” but how you make your library more environmentally responsible? What steps are practical in a real-world context, and what is the actual relationship between long-term financial benefits and up-front costs?
