No. 69 September 3, 1971 Vancouver, B. C,
KE-LKUm OF LIBRARY MSTE MATERIALS:
in an effort to help curb the spread of pollution and make better use of our
dwindling resources, the library administration has struck a committee on the
Re-Cycling of Library Waste Materials. The four staff members on the committee
represent various segments of the library's operation:
Joyce Harries (Chairman) Main Library, Public Services Divisions
Claudia Kerr Main Library, Processing Divisions
Leagh Carrel 1 Woodward Library
Carol Martin Smaller branch libraries
The Committee's terms of reference are:
1. To establish routines for collecting and re-using waste materials
within the 1ibrary.
2. To establish routines for the collection of waste materials
for re-cycling,
3. To establish and maintain contact with organizations and individuals
which collect materials for re-cycling.
4. To assist staff members in re-cycling home waste materials.
With the aid of Division and Branch Library heads, the Committee designated
certain areas where specified categories of waste materials may be deposited in
large, well-marked containers. The quality of material and the price (which
varies frequently) it will bring per ton determine the category:
$65.00 per ton computer cards
manila file folders
55.00 per ton (ledger) IBM print-outs
overdue notices
xerox paper
^5.00 per ton (ledger) coloured paper
13.00 per ton heavy corrugated cardboard
8.00 per ton (waste) paper towels
brown wrapping paper
letters (rip off staples, if possible)
envelopes with stamps and/or windows
magazines
5.00 per ton newspapers (must be bundled and tied
with string <- cannot be put in boxes
or plastic bags
NO plastic please
Physical Plant will collect the waste bags from the containers as
often as the Division or Branch desires. It is, however, not necessary to label
the full bag as to type of material. The bags will be stored in a special area
awaiting pick-up by the Joshua Society, which will sort and deliver them directly
to a paper re-cycling plant. - 2
On behalf of the Council, Board of Directors and members of the
Canadian Library Association, I would like to thank you and
everyone at U.B.C. whose efforts helped to make the CLA Vancouver
Conference one of the most successful and stimulating of recent
years. In the long view, it is the content of the conference
program and workshops and the opportunities provided to librarians
to meet informally and visit libraries that are the heart of a
good conference. Here U.B.C. made a magnificent contribution.
Thank you again for the imaginative and hardworking support
of all at U.B.C.
BOWLING LEAGUE MEETING:
All those interested in joining the Library Thursday night Bowling League
please meet on Thursday, September 9 at 1:00 p.m. in the Conference Room (north
east corner of the stacks on level 3). See you then.l

The Committee hopes to encourage library staff to re-use waste materials rather
than discard them immediately after use. For example, many people send memos on
the clean side of used xerox waste. Large manila envelopes may be re-used by
merely lining through the old wording and re-addressing them or using gummed labels
if being sent out of the library. In fact, they may be re-used several times if
staff members can refrain from writing in a large hand. Jiffy bags can be re-used
if the staples are removed and the tab is not pulled.
Lastly, the committee hopes to assist staff members in re-cycling home waste
materials by advising them of the locations of depots and the nature of the waste
that will be accepted.
For further information contact Joyce Harries at 3115 or Claudia Kerr at 230^.
