[Greenbuilding] Cork Flooring

Greetings All!

I recently found a roll of cork approximately 2 - 300 sq ft. in my
father-in-laws warehouse which he doesn't care about.  Its the type used to
make bulletin boards in schools for teachers to post things on.  I was
wondering if anyone knows if there is a difference between this and the cork
used for flooring applications.

How would I go about using this to make a floor?  I have tried to glue this
stuff before to make a board for posting things on, but because it has been
rolled for so long, it wants to lift.  Are there any specially formulated
cork glues out there?

Any advice or experiences with cork floors would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

M Jones
