Meet at the library to learn how to use the iNaturalist app on your smartphone or library-provided tablets and then explore the biodiversity of our neighborhood with Sophie Constantinou, of the Bernal Cut Project.

10 years ago, San Francisco's California Academy of Science challenged citizens around the world to document their environment using iNaturalist. Contribute to the competition this weekend alongside hundreds of countries as part of City Nature Challenge.

Glen Park Branch Library has a limited number of iPads available for use. Participants are encouraged to bring their own smartphones with internet service and wear shoes that can get dirty.
