New Duke directories arriving; recycle old ones
posted January 6th, 2009The Duke University Office of Information Technology (OIT) will distribute new Duke phone directories and accept old phone books for recycling at designated locations on Jan. 7 and 8.

Recycling phone books is one way the Duke community can contribute to the university’s environmental sustainability initiative and reduce Duke’s impact on the environment, said Janice Jordan, recycling and distribution coordinator.
Recycled phone books are made into products such as animal bedding, home insulation, bathroom tissue, cereal boxes, roofing shingles, and new phone books.
A limited number of Duke phone directories will be available on CD at a later date. For more information, contact Duke OIT at directories-concerns@duke.edu.
