Does the institution have a surplus department or formal office supplies exchange program that facilitates reuse of materials?:
Yes
None
A brief description of the program:
We have an internal list serve ("NMSU Postings") for redistribution of useable office supplies. It is a very successful program where supplies and equipment and furnishings are reused. NMSU also has a Properties Department separate from the list serve that accomplishes the same redistribution.
None

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
After a remodel of NMDA (New Mexico Dept. of Agriculture) building, their Facilities Operations Coordinator put unused furnishings and supplies in a room and sent out an email in order to share, at no charge, with other NMSU departments and staff at NMDA. The items that were not claimed were donated to schools in the community. The recycling effort was a great success with furnishings, office supplies, and lab equipment going to many others across the county and NMSU to be reused.
