The librarians in Youth Services made a bet with our Library’s Eco-Eye Monitor that we could stop kids from pushing the Handicapped button, when they do not really need to. We said, “If we just ask them politely to stop pushing the button and explain that it wastes electricity then they would stop”.
If we win the bet we get chicken wings from the Friendly Tavern! So, stop by the Youth Services Reference desk and get your elephant stamp. Elephants have a great memory. The elephant will help you remember “Don’t push that button!” Save the automatic doors for those who really need to use them.
In an effort to save electricity, our Eco-Eyes in Information Services and Maintenance have already taken action to save electricity. Adjustments have been made to the heating, cooling and humidity controls and the settings on the staff and public computers. Our Library has saved between 8-31% per month since August 2010 with these adjustments. We hope the children of our Library help us in saving more electricity and use the automatic doors more wisely. This will help us to continue saving even more and maybe ...just maybe Youth Services will win the bet.
