The City Nature Challenge is an international effort to document plants and wildlife in cities around the world. Each year, it takes place as a four-day global bioblitz at the end of April, bringing communities together to see what’s possible when we all work toward a shared goal.

About the branch
Following years of volunteer-staffed service in an empty church building, a permanent library serving Franklin Township, the Wanamaker Branch, opened in 1969 on Southeastern Avenue. To meet the needs of a rapidly growing township, the branch was replaced in 2000 by the current 18,000-square-foot Franklin Road Branch.
