Abstract
Environmental issues have become a major concern in recent years. There is urgent international focus on developing ideas to improve environmental quality. Thammasat University Department of Library and Information Science students have researched air pollution as a library-related issue. To do so, data from diverse media was studied, collected, compiled, analyzed, and synthesized to devise how to make libraries long-term learning centers for all. In addition, the idea of establishing a green library model to fit the current international context was presented.
Keywords: Green library, Air pollution, Environmental.
