Today is Earth Day! Make it a day of new beginnings, a day to think about what we are doing for the earth. Libraries have always been a part of Earth Day.
Earth Day has always been a special day for me. 24 years ago on Earth Day, I started at the Brillion Library. Each year as I celebrate Earth Day, I also celebrate the opportuhity to serve the Greater community of Brillion.
Over those years the Library has looked at and implemented ways to make the library more energy efficient. The Internet and email have lessoned our use of paper and have made the spread of information easier. The Library provides access to materials and information that people do not have to purchase. This saves valuable land fill space.
As you celebrate Earth Day! Don't forget the role your public library plays in making this a better world for you, your children and grandchildren. Happy Earth Day!
