we hope you will join us in congratulating the Library Go Green Team who received their Aston Excellence Award last week. Here are some of the achievements over the last year:
- Monthly challenges: collecting items to send to charity e.g. spectacles, unwanted jewellery,
Christmas cards and stamps, unwanted Christmas gifts
- Involved very actively in Go Green Week including maintaing a book
display, recycling game, members of staff attended the Go Green quiz night
- Weekly Go Green input into LS bulletin
- Took part in planting event and plants given “homes” by
Library staff
- Book Swap – with
remainder offered for free holiday reading
- Rescued academic books - sold at a discount price to
students
- Recycle unwanted library books by sending them to charity
- Lighting levels in the library are checked to ensure that the lowest comfortable levels were set
and that the lights time out periods were the most efficient they could be.
- Recycling whiteboard and other pens (in addition to the
monthly challenge)
- Leaflets and posters now reduced to a minimum and all library information where
possible is in electronic form including requests for journals
- Reduced our paper usage; redesigning forms, reusing forms and wherever possible
online versions of forms used.
