Go Green with Libraries NI
Small Actions. Shared Impact.
September is Go Green with Libraries NI, a month-long celebration of the small actions that can make a positive difference to our communities and the environment.Libraries have always been places where people share resources, learn new skills and connect with others. Every book borrowed, every skill learned and every idea shared helps us make better use of the resources around us.
Throughout September, libraries across Northern Ireland will be hosting a range of free events, activities and learning opportunities designed to help people discover practical ways to live more sustainably.
Whether you are interested in supporting local wildlife, reducing waste, growing your own food, learning new skills or simply finding out more about environmental issues, your library can help.

This September, we're encouraging everyone to make one simple Green Pledge.

Libraries and Sustainability
Libraries are one of the simplest examples of sustainability in action.
Every year, millions of items are borrowed through Libraries NI, allowing people to enjoy books, information and resources without the need to purchase new copies.
By sharing resources, supporting lifelong learning and bringing communities together, libraries help create a more sustainable future for everyone.
Get Involved
Join us this September and discover how small actions can create a shared impact.
Visit your local library, attend an event, borrow a book, make a Green Pledge and be part of Go Green with Libraries NI.
Together, small actions can make a difference.
