About this event

Powys libraries will be rolling up their sleeves and celebrating their green credentials during next month’s Green Libraries Week.

National Green Libraries Week is returning this year, running from 7-13 October 2024, and library users, new and old, are invited to get involved and find out more about sustainability and helping to reduce climate change.

Of course, being sustainable is nothing new for our libraries or their users. Borrowing a book from your local library, rather than buying new, is the ultimate sustainable choice, as is using the shared facilities such as the computers, printers and desk space. And it’s not just books you can loan from your library. You can also borrow e-books, audiobooks, iPad, blood pressure monitors, litter picking kits or even balance bikes!

Throughout the week we will be hosting recycling roadshows where you can find out how to make the most of your recycling boxes at home and help the environment by making sure you recycle as much of your waste as possible and make sustainable choices:
