The application of LEED green building rating system leading to certification points for SRM LIBRARY BUILDING by using Assessment of Green building norms. For creating Green building some significant suggestions are general planning, green technology and its benefit, for saving energy its types of light, specification, quantity and cost, for improvingIndoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) and then for improving materials and resources- alternative eco-friendly materials are discussed.
