Library Services along with the entire Austin Community College District is committed to becoming a leader in sustainability. That means using less energy and fewer resources while minimizing waste.

Here are some alternatives to printing:
  • Use portable storage such as a USB/Thumb drive to download the information you need.
  • Save your information to Google Docs. (ACC provides a place online where you can store and even edit your documents from anywhere you have access to the internet.)
  • Email your information to yourself and view or print them at home.

See more information about how to do these things at Printing Instructions & Alternatives
