During Earth Week, Skyline College Library invites you to explore up-to-date resources on sustainability and the environmental movement including a virtual book display with direct links to the library catalog for easy access (log into OneLogin using your SMCCD credentials).

For students, an updated library research guide on the topic of Sustainability highlights library article databases related to the green movement and sources in a range of formats to fit different learning styles.
