MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Terrebonne Parish Library System is to provide to all segments of Terrebonne Parish's diverse population a comprehensive collection of library resources and services necessary to satisfy the evolving informational needs and recreational pursuits of the community, thus enhancing the quality of life in Terrebonne Parish. The library system has four primary roles: it will provide current materials of high interest in a variety of formats for persons of all ages. It will provide timely, accurate information and services employing a well trained and motivated library staff. It will provide resources which are technologically advanced. It will serve as a door to learning for children by promoting the enjoyment of reading, learning, and libraries by providing materials and programs. The Terrebonne Parish Library System will uphold the public's freedom of access to knowledge.

Present The library board of control and staff are still striving to meet state standards. The collections of books, DVD, and books-on-CD are continuing to expand, and with new items continually being added. Currently, the library system is wireless and has approximately 100 computers available for public use. Over 1,200 programs and activities per year are provided to children, teens and adults. After the completion of the Main Library, renovations to East Houma, Dularge, Grand Caillou, and North branches have been completed with Bourg, Montegut, Chauvin, and Gibson to be done next. These renovations will provide the citizens of the parish with quality collections, programs, and technology - services that they deserve to have to provide a better quality of life. It's a simple fact: a library says a lot about a community.
