Description

In the first book to serioudly examine the future of libraries in a climae reality-based context, Henk convincingly argues that building a carbon-free future for libraries is not only essential but eminently practical. Using the "three E's" of sustainability (ecology, economy, equity) as a foundation, she traces the development of sustainability from its origins in the 1970s to the present, laying out a path librarians can take at their own institutions to begin the process of building a carbon-free library. Rooted in the latest science but firmly focused on concrete action, her book * Makes the case for sustainable libraries, tying the values that define the profession to the necessity of rethinking library operations and servicse in light of climate change * Guides readers through the first steps, with advice on starting the conversation, conducing outreach to stakeholders, and forming a sustainability committee * Includes a Sustainability Assessment and a sample sustainability plan that libraries can tailor for use at their own institution * Looks at the challlengse of technology and corporate power in the library, addressing the power imbalance between large corporations and libraries and suggesting alternatives to the status quo * Discusses how to combine advocacy with activism to encourage a socially just, safely powered world
