Public RecyclingThis is a featured page

What are some of the challenges we face in offering public recycling?

Living and working in a rural area has a lot of bonuses- but also a lot of limitations. Even urban areas have loop-holes in their recycling programs, but living in a rural area has presented us with unique challenges.

Our local (Tahlequah, OK) recycling does not cover plastics. Also, we have to arrange for a monthly pick-up, and that could amount to a lot of recycling waiting to be picked up.

We've discussed making rounds ourselves, in order to keep our trash closets relatively clear, but we would love to hear some ideas on how other rural institutions are handing recycling needs.

Providing library wide recycling bins reflects our desire to give back to the community by providing the opportunity to recycle. We're also interested in becoming more socially active by participating and promoting Donation Drives.
