Resources for Green Design at the NYSID Library


 
 The NYSID Library is collecting works focusing on Green Design to complement the curriculum.
   This webpage is a guide to these resources.

   Electronic Resources:

    BuildingGreen.com: Online Journal and Directory of Green Design.   Includes the text of the journal
         Environmental Building News (q.v.), as well as an online directory of sustainable materials and products. 
         It is accessible on campus through the Reference Resources menu on the Library homepage and can be
         accessed from off-campus by connecting through the
Connect from Home link on the Library homepage.

    EBSCO GreenFILE: GreenFILE indexes scholarly and general interest titles, as well as government documents and reports.
         This resource offers a unique perspective on the positive and negative ways humans affect the environment.
         Drawing on the connection between the environment and disciplines such as agriculture, education, law, health
         and technology, GreenFILE serves as an informative resource for anyone concerned about the issues facing our
         planet. The database contains nearly 300,000 records, full text for selected titles and searchable cited references
         for more than 200 titles as well.
