The Municipality of Cumberland has hired TCI Management Consultants to conduct a review of library infrastructure needs in Parrsboro.
The municipality passed a resolution earlier this year to conduct a review. The objective of the review is to provide a report that will identify the needs of the community and the viability of options, including proposing the scope and location of a new library in Parrsboro.
The scope of work includes conducting a needs assessment of the community regarding library infrastructure through various community engagement initiatives, including surveys for residents and an open house
In August 2024, the municipality selected TCI Management Consultants, in association with Beth Ross & Associates.
TCI is a cultural planning firm specializing in strategic planning and options assessment.
The existing Parrsboro branch of the Cumberland Public Libraries on Queen Street was created in 1968.
