Abstract

The article discusses the sustainability challenges faced by several librarians in terms of collection management and offering better services to students and the public. It mentions that there has been a call for many academic libraries to focus on creating more responsible operational models in terms of environmental impact if they are to keep information open and free to all. It relates how libraries have been managing their collections, are acquiring books and are making improvements on how they handle their materials.
