In response to the trend towards sustainability and the idea of “global thinking, local action” Taipei Public Library Beitou Branch continues to collect, display and evaluate ecology books. It has also actively established partnerships with both the public and private sector for a series of sustainability promotion events, including fixed and dynamic displays exhibited inside and outside the library focused on World Environment Day. 1.
