Libraries are doing their bit for climate change
Here at the KSHS library we are making moves towards using less plastic; Replacing plastic date stamp pockets with more sustainable paper versions produced on site, and by using fewer plastic covers where possible (this can however shorten the life of a popular book- think how many times a book gets unintentionally knocked around in a school rucksack each day!). Books that have become too tatty and reached the end of their shelf life are recycled, recrafted or sold in our charity book sales. We also have recycling bins in the library and encourage students to think carefully about what they need to print out.
