Abstract

The Environment, Sustainability and Libraries (ENSULIB) Section of IFLA has designed a Green Library Poster template for use by different types of libraries all over the world, and in different languages. The poster allows libraries to communicate their green library initiatives and raise community awareness about sustainability. The poster that ENSULIB is presenting at WLIC 2023 is titled "How to Tell Us Your Green Library Story". It describes how the Green Library poster template can be downloaded from the ENSULIB web site and how it can be used by libraries. It also includes suggestions for the types of sustainability initiatives that libraries may choose to include as examples when adapting the poster for their context. The poster additionally incorporates several completed posters from around the world to illustrate how diverse libraries have used the template. ENSULIB encourages libraries to display their completed poster prominently in their digital and physical spaces as a way of raising community awareness about sustainability. The posters can also be returned to ENSULIB for publication on our web site, creating a wonderful resource for sharing green library ideas with the global library community.
