We’re working hard to green our library. This entails incorporating sustainable products into our routines and projects as much as possible, including new building initiatives, such as the use of eco-friendly materials like linoleum and medex in our new off-site processing space. And we’re just getting started. It’s inspiring to see our friends in the museum-world also focusing on sustainability. Especially with new construction ventures such as the California Academy of Sciences, which opens in eight days and is considered one of San Francisco’s greenest buildings, and the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, which is having its grand-opening this weekend and is slated to be the first “green” museum in New York City. So if you’re looking for something interesting and green to explore this weekend — your local library and museum may just be the answer.
