Description
There are a number of sustainable energy saving strategies that collecting institutions can implement. These strategies require knowledge of the facility that houses the collection as well as a strong data monitoring program. The webinar will focus on not only ways to start gathering data and information to begin to understand what a facility is capable of but also some of the sustainable strategies that institutions can implement.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
· Understand what information they should be looking to collect about their institution to begin the sustainability process
· Learn what information to collect and the importance of pairing that information with a data monitoring program.
· Be able to apply this information will help guide their decision on what strategy they can implement
