Celebrating Green Libraries Week
22 October 2025
This Green Libraries Week (27 October to 2 November 2025), we’re celebrating the important role libraries play in building a more sustainable future and how, together, we can make reading and listening a little greener.
At Ulverscroft, we’re proud to support libraries in providing accessible formats that stand the test of time. From durable CD packaging designed to be reused for years, to high quality large print books that can circulate through hundreds of hands, and digital listening on uLibrary, sustainability is built into everything we do.
How Ulverscroft supports a greener library network
- Borrowing over buying
Each Ulverscroft title is created to last, helping libraries reduce waste and extend the life of every book and CD. Every loan means fewer single use purchases and more shared access for all. - Durable, reusable formats
Our specialist CD packaging is made for longevity and easy reuse, ensuring physical audiobooks continue to offer a reliable, eco friendly option alongside digital borrowing. - Digital listening, zero waste
With uLibrary, readers can access audiobooks instantly through their library card. There is no packaging, no transport and no waiting. It is an easy way to enjoy stories while keeping your carbon footprint low. - One stop for sustainable stories
By offering large print, physical audio and digital audiobooks all under one roof, Ulverscroft helps libraries meet diverse needs with efficiency and sustainability at the heart of it all.
This Green Libraries Week, we’re proud to stand alongside libraries in promoting accessibility, community and environmental care, proving that great stories do more than connect people, they can help protect the planet too.
