MaintainIT is producing a series of monthly 30-minute webinars focused on topics from the Cookbooks and designed to get you started on a project today. May's topic: Notes on wireless acceptable use policies from West Des Moines Public Library.
This month at the FLA conference in St. Pete Beach, FL, Sherry Millington, the Director of Suwannee River Regional Library, took part in the MaintainIT presentation, "Leading the Way: Stories from the Front Lines of Public Computing." As part of her talk, she spoke about techniques her library uses to save money and to keep aging technology out of the landfill. This is no easy task: Suwannee River Regional Library serves a rural community, and Sherry admitted that implementing green technology practices can be a difficult proposition.
