SUSTAINABILITY at UNIVERSITIES

I’m excited to manage a sustainable business that promotes ethical consumerism, an opportunity to re-use books – saving them from landfill and an opportunity for students to re-sell their books here on the UTS campus to other students, lowering the transportation costs of the product. To be part of a process to re-educate consumers to look at second hand – first, before buying new and to lower their education costs is rewarding.  Re-using textbooks means less trees need to be pulped into the production of new books. 

The challenge in the sustainability of books is to encourage and enquire with UTS Faculty Heads and University Teaching staff about the possibilities how to extend the life of the textbook. Could they consider, not only using the latest edition but possibly using one previous edition of a textbook to extend the sustainability – the life of a book?

From the feedback from students and my observation - quite often the theory or content is the same but case studies or examples change or maybe one chapter and sometimes only the order of the chapters of the book changes. It seems a shame for students to miss out on buying previous editions more cheaply, students unable to re-sell the book the bought recently and that these books would end up in landfill.

We all need to be part of the sustainability solutions. I would love to hear suggestions from UTS and also Publishers about how to extend the sustainability –life of a textbook. Publishers need to make money but could Publishers consider printed supplements or e-book supps of any small changes for a secondary market to those students on a lower income. Lower income International scholarship students and lower income students struggle to buy new and usually buy second hand or not at all. Therefore if they can buy second hand and buy a cheap update supplement everyone wins – including the environment.
