Your North Branch – Survey

Survey - Phase 2

Halifax North Memorial Public Library Renovation Project

Halifax Public Libraries is continuing work on the Your North Branch Renovation Project. Building on what we heard during Phase 1 of engagement, this survey invites you to share your thoughts on priorities for new indoor spaces, outdoor areas, and possible changes to your Library space.

Your feedback will help guide decisions during the design phase to better support learning, creativity, play and community gathering. The survey should take approximately 2–4 minutes to complete.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and helping shape the future of Your North Branch.
