Sixty librarians from around Illinois met at Chicago’s Field Museum October 22 to discuss how they could better help their communities go green.

The workshop kicked off the Illinois Library Association’s year-long Go Green @ your Illinois Library program, which aims to develop a group of librarians committed to environmental awareness.
