Sustainability Resources.
Maxwell Library. Check out the "Research Help" section on the Maxwell Library home page. You can also search Webster - BSC On-Line Catalog for items in Maxwell Library's collections by keyword, title, author, subject heading, call number, or journal title.
GreenFILE (access through BSC). GreenFILE is a freely accessible research database focusing on the relationship between human beings and the environment, with well-researched but accessible information on topics ranging from global warming to recycling to alternate fuel sources and beyond. Comprised of scholarly and general interest titles, as well as government documents and reports, GreenFILE offers a unique perspective on the positive and negative ways humans affect the ecology.
Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery Services. BSC faculty, librarians, administrators, students and staff may use Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery Services (ILL/DDS) to request materials not found in the Clement C. Maxwell Library Collection.
Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE). AASHE is an association of colleges and universities that are working to create a sustainable future. Our mission is to empower higher education to lead the sustainability transformation. We do this by providing resources, professional development, and a network of support to enable institutions of higher education to model and advance sustainability in everything they do, from governance and operations to education and research. Check out the Resource Center to find information relevant to your project. BSC is an AASHE member, so you should have free access to all resources.
Sustainability - The Journal of Record. This journal meets the needs of the rapidly growing community of professionals in academia, industry, policy, and government who have the responsibility and commitment to advancing one of the major imperatives of this young century. The Journal provides the information and resources to foster collaboration, between sustainability managers, educators, corporate executives, administrators, policy makers, economists, and technology innovators who have the mandate to address and move forward the imperatives of the preservation and sustainability of global resources. I have a subscription to this journal, so let me know if you need specific articles.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)/Sustainability. The Sustainability Program of EPA’s Office of Research and Development maintains this Web site to provide one-stop access to EPA and related programs and the latest research and activities related to Urban Sustainability and the Built Environment; Water and Ecosystem Services; Energy, Biofuels and Climate Change; and Materials Management and Human Health.
