Green Libraries are more than just Buildings

There’s something about a public building that doesn’t always feel public. A gym is often public, but it’s very hard to feel comfortable there as just anybody. Morton has always been well known for having people judging on irrelevant things that don’t really describe a person. I hear parents, children, grandparents all passing judgement on things that don’t matter in the scheme of things. I’ve always felt you should ignore many things about people as long as they 're good people and nice. This opinion

the certification, the more ecofriendly the building is, but there is new evidence to suggest that this might be wrong and new programs out there are raising the bar. Sam Roudman wrote “L.E.E.D.ing from Behind. A Green Building Racket Exposed” published in the New Republic, and he argues that even though the public believes that L.E.E.D. is encouraging more ecofriendly buildings, there is evidence that the top certified L.E.E.D. buildings, such as the Bank of America Building, are not the most ecofriendly

Response a. Library i. I doubt that Wilson Hall (never heard of it nor been to it) would be big enough for the current student population’s need. To be honest, I think the current library is too small for the student population’s demand. However, I think this could easily be fixed by making the library more space efficient. As of now, there is a lot of space in the library, but not enough places to sit and do work. I think that adding more tables and chairs would allow the library to meet the current

Architecture Building & Planning is being uprooted and relocated to allow the demolition of the current building. In this assignment I am not going to discuss the potential green, eco friendly, sustainability aspects that could be incorporated into the new building, rather focus on the possibilities that are created when a facility of this magnitude is dispersed. There are hundreds of people affected by this large-scale event. All the offices, tutorial rooms, computer labs, library and lecture

The Shafer Library and Its Many Flaws The Shafer library is an obviously rather old building that has trouble even keeping up with all the commodities offered by even my dorm as far as studying is concerned for example, I have a very good computer and laptop that easily outpaces the horribly outdated tech provided by our cramped little library. Some people might stress the importance of keeping some things the same holding onto their quaint traditions with outstanding vigour, but sometimes things

Multnomah County Library on 49th and woodstock to do my Fieldwork Observation assignment. I left directly after school and took the number 10 bus, to Woodstock Park which I walked through. I arrived at the library at 2:48pm I used the restroom then took a seat in the back right of the room. The reason for this seating choice was so I could see as much as the room as possible. I didn’t officially start the time until 2:51pm. The first thing I noticed was that all of the people were older than 25 years old

finally arriving to the top from the trip that seemed to have taken so much longer then have thought, stretched before you is a sight so beautiful, it takes one 's breath away. Once to the top there is no one around. The few people that are visible are just the cars and people walking down sidewalks far below. The only sounds are the faint sounds of the city; dogs barking, cars traveling past, birds chirping, and the chiming of the hour of the large clock on campus. The mind is instantly cleared and

I think that I would be a good fit for UW-Green Bay because of what Green Bay has to offer. I got the opportunity to visit Green Bay on two occasions, once with my cousin Michaela Haas, who has graduated from Green Bay, and once during your Music and Art Open House on March 2 earlier this year. After visiting Green Bay, I knew that I would fit in because of how open of a campus it is. I have witnessed the overwhelmingly expansive music program which Green Bay has to offer and I feel as if this is

The café in the center of the store is actually a little Starbucks coffee shop, but due to the food that they service it is more of a café than anything else. The food is not really a wide selection, but it is enough that anyone is, “required to play host, and in which all feel at home and comfortable.” (Oldenburg, page 22) With the decent food and Starbucks, anyone that has an order does not need to remain at the tables to finish it. You can still be able to browse the shelves and read anything

bright pink flashing fluorescent it says: LIBRARY OPEN 24 HOURS Her phone is water logged and she has nowhere to stay tonight. To Alyssa, this place that materialised through the rain is her lighthouse beacon amongst the storm. It seems that tonight, she won't be sleeping beneath the awnings of a Subway. When the road is clear, Alyssa jogs across. Her clothes are already damp enough that she doesn't care if they get any more wet. The front of the building that looms before her is made of an ominous
