In honor of the 40th Earth Day on April 22, 2010, SWON Libraries will be accepting certain types of electronic equipment that you would like to discard during the entire month of April. We will take care of appropriate recycling of the items, as long as they are included on the list below. The staff is committed to this effort as a service to our members and to Planet Earth.

We ask that you only bring in what is reasonable to carry (we will be shipping some of these items to recycling facilities). If you want to get rid of more than seems reasonable, please contact the office and we may be able to make special arrangements for you. Since most of you work in libraries, bringing the items in any book boxes you have laying around would be welcome.

Please only bring in items on this list:

Any cell phone

Any inkjet cartridge

Any digital camera

Any digital video camera

Any portable gaming system

Laptop/notebook computers (Pentium III or higher)

MP3 players (Apple, Zune, Sandisk, or Creative brands)

GPS devices (TomTom, Garmin, Magellan, and Mio brands)

Radar detectors (Escort, Beltronics, and Cobra brands)

The office is typically open from about 8:30 a.m. until about 5:30 p.m. We would be happy to make special arrangements to be here outside of those hours–just give us a call at (513) 751-4422.

SWON Address:  10815 Indeco Drive, Suite #200; Blue Ash, OH 45241
