• Re: Greening our libraries?

  2007-12-21 10:07:08 UTC

  As a former librarian who helped found the American Library Association's Task Force on Environment I will, with your permission, pass your request on to their listserv in hopes active folks in the profession can get back with you on your request. There is a good strand of environmental activism and commitment in the profession including ties to the Green Press Initiative and Green textbook Initiative and Greening their conferences. We have down programs at ALA Conferences on Greening the library and pieces in their journals on selection of sources. I have not been active in the profession since 2000 since I now am immersed in other things, but I'm sure colleagues out their in librarydom can help.
  
  All good things,

• Re: Need information on glass recycling project as a social enterprise for a nonprofit

  2006-09-28 03:56:45 UTC

  We used a glass crusher for years to cut down volume (not weight) in our volunteer community recycling organization. Two concerns emerged: 1) noise and 2) dust. We bought industrial ear protectors, but the dust issue was harder to handle. Besides it doesn't get it recycled. No market currently in our region for green glass, which is mostly what wine comes in.
