Kinderhook Memorial Library has been certified sustainable through the Sustainable Library Certification Program. While on their journey, Kinderhook completed a wide array of remarkable accomplishments during their pursuance of certification.

ALA and SLI are seeking feedback from the field. This survey is intended for library leaders. The Working Group identifies library leaders as ALL library workers and trustees given each person's sphere of influence to make a difference on the topic of climate action. The survey should take 8-10 minutes to complete. It will remain open until Friday, April 5, 2024.

Are you going to PLA? If so, join us for lunch in Columbus! Are you going to PLA in Columbus? Are you planning on exploring some local restaurants? Join Hazel and other available members of the SLI to chat about all things sustainably and libraries. Together let's eat, drink, be merry and make some like-minded friends!

                               

At this session we will introduce the draft strategy, discuss the opportunities and challenges for implementing the strategy, and invite attendees to provide feedback that will shape the final product scheduled to be released in June at ALA Annual in San Diego.

The Sustainable Libraries Initiative (SLI) is excited to be collaborating with four different State Library Associations (ILA, MLA, NJLA, NYLA) on a new partnership that provides a one year free membership to the SLI to all members of one of our four affiliated state library associations. In addition a 20% discount on the registration fee for any affiliated state library member who decides to enroll in the Sustainable Library Certification Program.
