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

In this session, Nancy Ladd of Pillsbury Free Library in Warner will share her experience organizing sewing workshops in coordination with a local 4-H Club, creating tote bags, fabric gift wrapping, and other items with donated fabric, and an Earth Day bike clinic and lamp repair event. 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.
