Subject Librarian
Welcome!
In conjunction with Salisbury University’s sustainability initiatives, including the 2021 SU Climate Action Plan with its aim to reduce and offset the university’s greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050, SU Libraries has put together a Sustainability Resources Guide. The purpose of the guide is to allow students and researchers to quickly identify key SU resources and outside materials for their areas of sustainability research.
To assist you with your sustainability research needs, this guide provides information on articles, books, websites, and green living generally.
For questions, comments, or recommendations about this guide or regarding sustainability resources, please contact the Subject Librarian.
