Citizen Science Volunteers Needed!
Spring 2010 marks the beginning of the second year of Canterbury’s
participation in the Connecticut Audubon Society’s Citizen Science
Volunteer Monitoring Program, a partnership with the Canterbury Public
Library and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. In 2009, 24 volunteers
contributed 211 volunteer hours collecting conservation data for five
Citizen Science projects. There’s a project in each season and training
sessions are held for each project. To register, call 860-928-4948.
Canterbury residents’ fees are covered by the USFWS grant. Volunteers
from other towns are welcome.

Vernal Pool Inventory 2010 - Vernal pool season goes by quickly --don’t
miss the fun. On Friday and Saturday mornings in April and May, our
trained volunteers document vernal pools in Canterbury, Pomfret, and
Woodstock. We tramp through woods, listen for wood frogs and count
amphibian egg masses. If you missed the training in early April, it’s not
too late to train in the field by contacting Paula Coughlin, project
coordinator. We also welcome reports of vernal pool locations in
Canterbury.

Contact Paula Coughlin or call the library for more information

Library Building Project
We have been awarded a grant in
the amount of $793,000 to build an
addition to our library.
The grant must go through a bonding
process before any funds are
released.
We are hoping to raise the remainder
of the funds we need through
donations and other grants to
complete our building process.

building plans click on the links below
