Hi everyone,
We have an upcoming program called "Rouge River Revived: How People Are
Bringing Their River Back to Life" on Wed, May 31, 6:30 p.m. at Henry Ford
Centennial Library (HFCL), 16301 Michigan Ave.
The flyer is attached, and here is more info:
Author John Hartig will be here to discuss a book that he co-edited titled
Rouge River Revived (2022). This program will be offered in-person at HFCL
in room M-15 and online through Zoom. Please register to receive the Zoom
link if you would like to attend the event virtually.
"Rouge River Revived is the story of how people overcame apathy and are
working together to bring their river and its watershed back to life," says
John. "It also will surely inspire and give hope to all working to restore
and protect watersheds in the place they call home."
For additional information, or to learn about other upcoming events, please
visit our website at dearbornlibrary.org or our social media pages, or call

[A white letter on a blue green and red background Description automatically generated with low confidence]From counting clouds to banding birds, scientific projects involving regular people are common. Not only does this work help scientists, but it also empowers citizens to connect with the natural world. The Michigan eLibrary (MeL)<https://mel.org/welcome> includes peer-reviewed studies, articles, and eBooks that can get regular people involved in scientific study.
