Universities and libraries are applying the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) in their academic planning, but this study shows the current situation with the green libraries in the country. The aim of this study is to explore how sustainable 30 academic libraries are. Beyond an analysis of library spaces, this study explains the perspective of their librarians, management of resources, and care of the environment as a part of their day-by-day activities. A survey was submitted, and all the participants described their definitions and approach to the topic. As a result, this study found that the perception of sustainability in academic libraries has a significant connotation towards the issue of budgets and space design, not towards water use, recycling, and electricity use, among other aspects. Finally, this study suggests some good practices of sustainability for the academic library. |
