Spring is in the air around the library! The
snow is melting away from around our building and more and more green is
beginning to show outside. All of the new green showing up after all of our
snow covering everything in blanket of white for so many months can be a great
reminder to us all of how special the beauty of nature is and how important it
is to be forever conscious of it.
The Sustainability Organization
at North Central Michigan strives to provide a more environmentally friendly
campus, spread educational information to fellow students and staff about our
impact on the environment, and to make a
positive difference with the influence each of us has.
During the month of April, the Sustainability Organization is partnering with NCMC Library to provide an Earth Day book display. This book display will give the public a glimpse of a some of the informative books in our library that deal with multiple aspects of environmental awareness and education regarding modern issues. Some of the books include The Last Child in The Woods by Richard Louv, Genetically Engineered Food: Changing The Nature of Nature by Martin Teitel, Pedaling Revolution by Jeff Mapes, and many others. These books are open for checkout to any library patron.

So stop by the
library and check out a book or two. Take the green grass starting to pop up
outside as a reminder of Earth Day and pick out a book as a celebration of
spring and possibly learn a little more about how to take care of our beautiful
world!
