BUSP's Carbon Footprint


Two members of BUSP (Steven and Terry) are members of the Libraries Sustainability Task Force. This group is looking at energy use and other topics, and will be submitting recommendations to Library Administration near the end of August. Do you have ideas on how to make BUSP and the other libraries on our campus more sustainable? If so, talk to Terry.

Did you know that in addition to paper and aluminum cans, BUSP also recycles plastic (numbers 1 and 2), steel cans, and cardboard? You'll find bins for these items in the storeroom near Mike's and Nels' offices.

Required: One Hour of Shelving per Day

Books waiting to be shelved at BUSP are about as plentiful as raindrops were in Indiana a week or so ago! It is important that we get our shelving done, so we can continue with our shifting and get other special projects for this summer underway. Until we are caught up, please plan on shelving for one hour each day you are working at BUSP. If you have any questions about this, please talk to your supervisor. And do check with him/her before you leave the desk, so we can keep the service point manned while you are away in the stacks.
