Does the institution have a surplus department or formal office supplies exchange program that facilitates reuse of materials?:
A brief description of the program:
The University of Minnesota ReUse Program started in 1993. This program collects, categorizes, and re-distributes surplus University property in reusable condition. All goods are available at no charge to University departments and sold to the public at approximately 30% of retail prices.
In 2010, ReUse partnered with MnTAP to create a virtual warehouse database where users are linked with donors, allowing exchange of goods with the logistical support from ReUse staff.
