Speaker: Marie Bloechle, University of North Texas Libraries
Sustainability is often a campus-wide initiative, but how are academic librarians responding to the challenge to go green within their own walls? We've asked top academic librarians what eco-friendly tactics and green strategies have been most successful for them at their college and university libraries. This session will focus on illustrative examples and best practices in green academic libraries around the country.
Points of Interest:
- The most successful methods of greening your existing academic library building.

Marie Bloechle is the Electronic Acquisitions Librarian at the "We Mean Green" University of North Texas libraries. Known as "The Green Librarian", she has a unique perspective on the green library movement because of her position and background. Being new to academic librarianship, but a special librarian for over 20 years, she's passionate about greening her newly adopted institution.
