Bartek and Brungard co-author article about sustainability in libraries

Jennifer Bartek, Slippery Rock University manager of library operations, and Allison Brungard, instructor of library, recently co-authored an article about sustainability in libraries for the American Libraries Magazine, a publication of the American Library Association.

The article, titled "Sustaining Sustainability," explains how the SRU Bailey Library infused "green" practices, including composting, paper reuse, printing reduction and single-use plastic reduction. The article is part of a series marking the 50th anniversary of Earth Day where information professionals, like Bartek and Brungard, share their experiences with the more than 65,000 subscribers of American Libraries Magazine.

The article is available on the American Libraries website.
