Abstract - The concept of a "green library" or "sustainable library" is a novel one that is gaining popularity among librarians. The goal of the Green Library Movement is to make libraries more environmentally friendly and slow down environmental deterioration. It is made up of librarians, libraries, communities, towns, and college and university campuses. This study focuses on Green libraries and the sustainable growth of engineering technological libraries. This paper focuses on the need and the current status of green libraries and proposes various ways for setting up green libraries. The present state of libraries in both traditional buildings as well as renovated library buildings without the green concept. This is a collective effort from the management of the colleges and the library professional to initiate and create/ renovate sustainable development of engineering technology libraries with a focus on green libraries.
