One Word: Plastics
Duane G. Meyer Library will be joining the Office of Public Affairs during Public Affairs Week (Sept. 9-15) to host a display in Room 107 with a focus on the environmental impact of plastics. The display will feature the library’s award winning display last seen during RecycleMania last academic year. “Inside the Garbage of the World,” a documentary film from Journeyman Pictures about the global impact of plastics, will be shown in a continuous loop on the large “Mobile Jumbotron” display in Room 107.
Also during Public Affairs Week, on Thursday, Sept. 14th from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. the MSU Libraries is sponsoring a Living Stories event. Living Stories provide everyone with a chance to encounter books that come alive and talk back! Our “books” are people with stories to tell and experiences to share, and our readers are free to ask questions and enjoy conversations with their books! Our books this year include people from different backgrounds who have engaged in the practical issues of sustainability. As a reader, you will have the opportunity to bust various myths about sustainability, learn how you can make a difference, and interact with your book about your thoughts!
