Renovations are well underway to create an outdoor library at the Dartmouth North Public Library and Community Centre. This fresh space will combine all the benefits of a library—connection, learning, growth—with fresh air and active living. We've been engaging and celebrating progress with the community, as we go.
Groundbreaking Ceremony
On September 11, 2017, we officially turned the sod on our Exterior Renovation Project, thanks to the support of all partners at TD, ACOA, and Halifax Parks & Recreation.
