We could not be more excited to announce that the San Diego County Public Library is the first library in California to be certified under the Sustainable Library Certification Program!

Super proud of Matthew Bollerman (show below having fun at the Imperial Beach branch of the San Diego County Library), co-founder of the Sustainable Libraries Initiative for serving as the mentor to this library during their certification journey. This is the largest library organization – BY FAR – that has been certified through the program.

Read all about their journey here and check out their final presentation here.

They just got some great coverage for this achievement thanks to the Our Towns Civic Foundation, check it out here: How Libraries Are Becoming ‘Sustainable’
