Notre Dame Engineering Libray Goes Green to Support Energy Week

This year’s Energy Week slogan is GREEN is the new BLACK, and there are several activities and educational programs planned throughout the week to increase awareness and help educate our community about current energy issues and topics. Programs such as the screening of energy films, touring the Notre Dame Power Plant, and attending lectures about energy and some of the energy challenges facing our nation today will be of interest to the entire community, while the energy career luncheon will be geared specifically toward undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in job opportunities with major energy companies. On Monday, September 14, on the South Quad near Cushing Hall the traditional Quad Display will take place. There are several major energy companies and energy-related groups and organizations that will be displaying the latest in energy technologies and discussing best practices for creating a sustainable energy future.

For details and a complete list of activities, please visit: http://www.nd.edu/~ndenergy/news-and-events/EnergyWeekSchedule2009.shtml.

How to print on laptops in Hesburgh Libraries

We added a new link on the Engineering Library home page to the OIT page that gives instructions for laptop printing. It is important to note that you will need to run the new printer installer this fall even if you installed it last year as changes were made over the summer.

ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy helping us all save money and protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices.

Results are already adding up. Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR, saved enough energy in 2008 alone to avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 29 million cars — all while saving $19 billion on their utility bills.
