Sustain Mizzou held their monthly Notebook Project meeting this past week, during which students meet and create recycled notebooks.

The covers are made from pieces of cereal boxes that have been patched together, and the pages are pieces of recycled paper that have only been used on one side. The notebooks are then bound and sold at the bookstore for $2.50 or at Sustain Mizzou’s table outside of Memorial Union on Tuesdays for $2.

Last week the club made 30 notebooks. Last month the club witnessed the greatest turn out since the project began, with 90 notebooks being created in just an hour and a half of work.

The next Notebook Project meeting will take place in November.
