The Green Libraries Webinar is an hour long meet to showcase the recent work we have published for the Partnership. We will discuss the Partnership's aims, what work is currently going on and what has taken place earlier this year. We will hear from two libraries that were featured in our case studies and what work they are doing for their library services to be more sustainable and have an impact in their communities. There will be a short Q+A towards the end.
Online registration is closed.

As of February 2022, CILIP has announced the Arts Council England funded Green Libraries Partnership, a multiyear research and development programme to enable public libraries in England to address Environmental Responsibility. The Green Libraries Partnership works in collaboration with leading organisations: Arts Council England, the British Library, Libraries Connected and Julie’s Bicycle. We believe that public libraries are hubs of sustainability. Reusing and recycling books and providing information to communities to underpin their own climate action, is at the core to what we do. The Green Libraries Partnership aims to: - discover and harness the existing work going on in libraries relating to Sustainability
- build and support environmental understanding and action within libraries so they can play their full part in creating a better future for planet and people
- enable libraries to work with their communities to continue to build environmental understanding and action
- position libraries at the heart of local environmental programmes including those led by Local Authorities.
The online webinar will be a chance for us to showcase the work we have carried out since February, hearing from two libraries the Partnership has worked with for our Case Studies feature and more information on what we have currently going on for this phase of the project.
