Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) has partnered extensively with the Library to provide their customers with energy efficiency information. See their library partnership web site, rent a Portable Energy Meter, or browse Greening Our Worldbrochures on energy use at the library or online. In 2008, MG&E made a major financial contribution through the City of Madison for demonstration of energy-efficiency technology at the new Sequoya Branch.

Our most recent collaboration is the Greening Our World list of books and videos donated to Madison Public Library by MGE.
