Learning Library
Purpose
The Durham SWCD Environmental Education Learning Library’s purpose is to provide the best environmental education materials to adults (teachers, naturalists, interpreters, children’s librarians, scout leaders, camp counselors, recreation leaders, daycare personnel, curriculum specialists, etc.) who work with children and aspire to share the joy of nature and the environment with them.
Through a generous donation from Target in the amount of $1,500 we have been able to purchase Environmental Education books for ages 2-9 years old. The library contains fiction and non-fiction books, videos & magazines about the environment and natural resources.
