About Us
Mission
A safe place to learn stuff (neat stuff!)
The Terrace Public Library is a safe and welcoming environment that fosters a love of reading and life-long learning, beginning with our youngest members.
Vision
As a key community space, the Terrace Public Library's core mandate is to provide access to information and knowledge, both written and electronic.
We seek to inspire the spirit of exploration, the joy of reading, and the pursuit of knowledge for people of all ages and backgrounds, beginning with the very young. Our ultimate vision is of a literate citizenry, transforming and enriching lives through knowledge and information.
Our vision centers on creating a welcoming and safe space for cultural, personal and intellectual enrichment, delivering a wide-range of programs that
- entertain and inspire;
- celebrate our diverse cultures, communities and people; and,
- support lifelong learning, reading and enjoyment.
The Terrace Public Library board, management and staff accept a collective responsibility and accountability for the effective management and stewardship of library resources and for the overall quality of library services offered to the people of Terrace and surrounding communities.
