It may have seemed quiet on the project front lately but PEG is well and truly underway!
An online staff survey has been conducted at UEL to find out about printing behaviours and environmental attitudes. There was an excellent response rate of 284 replies across different departments, offering us a good insight as to what staff think about office printing and environmental issues.
A summary of results is available online.
The University of East London, London South Bank University and charity Global Action Plan are working on a Green ICT project funded by JISC. The aim of the project is to investigate how barriers to Green ICT can be overcome within a HEI, especially in terms of cross-departmental working and implementing staff behavioural change programmes. We're looking at the specific issue of improving the efficiency of printing to deliver a long-term sustainable solution.

High-tech copy machines a gold mine for data thieves
I feel this is a matter that we need to consider.
We can not be efficient if we can not manage and protect the security of our data and images stored in the digital photocopier machines. This would be a waste of IT resources, costs and time.
