Coffee Chat: Sustainable Libraries Initiative Program: Learn from Maine Libraries

Curious about MLA's partnership with the Sustainable Libraries Initiative (SLI), but unsure where to start? In this Coffee Chat, hear from a panel of librarians about their libraries' experience with the Sustainable Libraries Initiative Program. Learn directly from members of our Maine library community about how they approached SLI Certification, what sustainable initiatives they are implementing at their libraries, and why your library should consider becoming a Certified Sustainable Library. Bring your questions to our panel and prepare to answer our icebreaker question, "What is one small act of sustainability that your library is already doing?".

Our panelists include:

Lee Koenigs, Director, Libby Memorial Library, Old Orchard Beach

Melissa Olson, Director, Alice L. Pendleton Library, Islesboro

Hazel Onsrud, Adult Services Librarian, Curtis Memorial Library, Brunswick, SLI Advisory Board

Amy Wisehart, Director, Northeast Harbor Library, Northeast Harbor

The Coffee Chat Series is an MLA Membership benefit. Registration is open to all members, and the event Zoom link will be provided in your registration confirmation email. This event will not be recorded.
