Our library is for you

Located at the TCCBE office, our library is the place to access hundreds of local research reports on a broad range of topics identified by community groups over the past ten years. We also have a large selection of books and articles on community-based research, community service-learning, community development and experiential education.

How to access the library collection

If you want to see what we have in our collection, drop-by our office or give us a call. You can do customized searches and provide lists that include brief summaries of the resources you are looking for. Once you find the resources you want, we can often send PDF documents or you can come by and sign something out for a few weeks.

You can also search our library collection online by using the catelogue for the Peterborough Public Library or the Alternative Libraries @ Trent initiative.

Calling all past TCCBE researchers!

Often, work done for an individual organization can contribute to other projects or make up a portion of a larger body of work. It is in these connections and the availability of the information that the greater good of the community may be served. If you have completed a CBE project, please make sure that the TCCBE Library has a copy of your report and/or final products! It will help future researchers and community members!

To view completed CBE project resources in Haliburton County, visit the Haliburton County Collection or drop by the U-Links Centre for Community-Based Research office.
