Reports on the SCONUL Buildings Visit 2005 which focused on two libraries, Lanchester Library, Coventry University, UK, and the Open University, UK. Explains that the common feature for both library buildings is their use of fresh air ventilation rather than conventional air conditioning and the reasons for this are discussed in terms of the need to reduce both energy consumption and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions
