- Recycle your Printer Cartridges at Grace Library
Grace Library accepts used inkjet and laser printer cartridges for recycling.
Put a used cartridge from any inkjet or laser printer in a plastic bag or the original box to keep it safe from damages and spills.
Put the empty cartridges in the collection box on the second level of Grace Library. Or, drop the cartridges in the campus mail addressed to Grace Library.
The library sends the empty cartridges in for recycling and gets paid for each empty inkjet cartridge. This money goes towards purchasing new library materials. Last year we raised over $400 for journal subscriptions! Thank you for your continued support.
