WASHINGTON—Two nonprofit organizations, the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and Island Press, have teamed up to launch GreenWorks, a book club that will offer “the newest and best” books on green building at discounted prices.

GreenWorks, created expressly for USGBC members, will offer a selection of featured reads each month, while also connecting readers to a vast selection of the latest green-building books and noteworthy authors.

Books are selected on a monthly basis by a panel of experts in the field and are available for purchase from Island Press (www.islandpress.org/usgbc). USGBC members will be able to buy at discounted prices and are eligible for bulk-purchase discounts.
