There was a water leak in the Youth Services area on Monday, January 26th. This wing will be closed until further notice. We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause to our Youth population. The Sydney Wright Room is being used for storage during this time, so it will be unavailable. The rest of the library is open for normal business. We thank you for your understanding.

What are Those Bugs on Our Trees? How to Build Tree Resiliency & Health

Are those insects on your trees good or bad? Are some of them killing your trees? Explore the natives, non-natives, and invasives - both trees and insects - in our Rhode Island landscapes with Alana Russell, a research entomologist and manager of the URI BioControl Lab. Learn the actions you can take to counteract and prevent insect pests and invasive trees. Find out what Rhode Island and URI are doing to combat invasives and support the health of our trees. Bring your friends and neighbors - and your questions - to get the latest info on the connection between our changing climate, trees and insects.

This program begins at 7:00 pm and will end at 8:30 which will provide time for your questions and answers.
