Subject: [ILL-L] Green interlibrary loan practices?


Hello, I am working on an article that has a section on "green"
practices in interlibrary loan.  I am looking at things like re-using
packaging, cutting down on amount of paper used, recycling, etc.

Anyone have ideas that they'd be willing to share about how you've cut
down on waste and moved towards more sustainable practices in your ILL
departments?

Thanks in advance!
Chris
