SLA goes green
Saturday, January 19, 2008 by level1librarian
“SLA Headquarters has already begun implementing green practices in its day-to-day operations, such as eliminating unnecessary printing of documents and replacing disposable cups and utensils with flatware and ceramic coffee mugs and dinnerware.. Many of the paper products such as paper towels and napkins used at the Alexandria HQ building are now ordered from environmentally friendly companies that use recycled materials. Staff members, on their own, have begun an aggressive recycling program, and the association’s management is now encouraging the use of public transportation with various incentives and rewards. Additionally SLA has committed to purchasing carbon credits to offset all staff travel for events throughout the year.”
About time!
