Join the Sustainability Committee virtually on the third Wednesday of the month at noon to discuss sustainability in libraries!

This session will discuss engaging your community through sustainable programs. Brittany Durgin from the Moultonborough Public Library will share tips on starting a seed library and a houseplant clipping swap, and Nancy Ladd of Pillsbury Free Library in Warner will talk about hosting UNH Extension Master gardener programs on gardening and composting. Attendees are encouraged to share their own ideas for programs and initiatives that engage communities in sustainability.

This discussion is inspired by Chapter 9, “Connecting Community through Sustainability: Seeds, Climate Action Kits, and Repair Cafés” in the ALA professional development book Libraries & Sustainability: Programs and Practices for Community Impact. Reading the chapter in advance is not required. All are invited and encouraged to participate in the discussion.

Email nhlasustainability@nhlibrarians.org for questions!

Join us next month on November 20 for Stitch and Fix
