A brief description of the program:
Macalester College has implemented a campus-wide inventory system to facilitate the reuse of laboratory chemicals. Each chemical bottle has a unique barcode. The computerized inventory system uses this barcode to store the bottle's information, including chemical information, container size and room location. Faculty can then always be aware of what chemicals are available for use. Faculty also do an evaluation on the use of chemicals once a year to better inform which kinds of chemicals should be purchased in lower quantity to reduce any unnecessary waste.
