Librarians Christine Beardsley and Sylvie Larsen recently won the Earth Day “Green Ideas Contest” with their idea to convert the MSKCC shuttles to bio-diesel or hybrid. Congratulations, Christine and Sylvie!

They are part of an eco-conscious team in the Library that attempts to implement environmentally friendly practices wherever possible. If you are an MSKCC Library patron with a suggestion for how we can improve current practices, please let us know!
