[SLI-public] Environmentally-Friendly Library Cards?

[Lisa Jacobs]

A number of years ago, there were some news stories about San Rafael (CA) Library changing to bamboo library cards. I don't know if this is still the case, but at the time it was custom work from a company in the Pacific Northwest.

Subject: [SLI-public] Environmentally-Friendly Library Cards?


Good morning,

One of the most frequent product questions I get is related to sourcing library cards. So I’m tapping into the hive mind here, has anyone come across vendors with environmentally-friendly library cards? Perhaps made from recycled content, biodegradable, etc.



Any leads would be appreciated!



Be well,

Rebekkah
