Election of officers and board members for the Friends of the Euclid Public Library will begin at 6:30 PM.

Beginning at 7:00 PM, the Friends welcome our featured speaker, Dr. Roy Larick who will l speak about humans and the natural world.

Reversing History in Euclid
Humans transform the natural world to meet our own ends, often to nature's detriment. Dr. Larick will show how Euclidians have transformed local nature during two centuries, and how we and nature are the poorer for it. To have a livable future, we must live better with our place--live more equitably with nature. Dr. Larick will present elemental ways to help reverse the more unsustainable transformations, to benefit nature and ourselves. It can be done!
