Abstract

This study explores the environmental wellness of librarians as part of a broader initiative to create a sustainable and eco-friendly workplace. Building on a previous wellness program designed for university library staff, this research specifically focuses on how librarians perceive and engage in environmental practices within their work setting. Through the use of a wellness assessment tool, the study identified existing habits and attitudes toward sustainability, revealing moderate engagement with eco-friendly behaviors. Based on these findings, a targeted environmental wellness program was developed, which includes sustainability initiatives, the formation of a Green Team, and nature-based activities to support both ecological responsibility and staff well-being. The study underscores the importance of integrating environmental wellness into institutional culture to enhance librarians' overall health and workplace satisfaction.
