Prince Edward County is growing and changing. A popular tourist area with wine, arts, and food, "The County" is evolving. The County Foundation Vital Signs Report describes that "The County is in a period of rapid change, good things are happening but at what cost? Many are feeling a decline in their sense of belonging." This is especially true for vulnerable youth. Having a safer space outside of home and school is often a key part of teenagers feeling safe and part of the community at large. Joining in after school and weekend programs, discovering technology and innovation, and just having a place to "hang out" at the library are important ways that youth get to participate in community life. Picton is home to Prince Edward County's only high school, PECI. Students travel from across the area to Picton for high school. The library works closely with the school to share equipment, programs and expertise and PECI is looking forward to having access to the additional space and resources. The expansion project overall is important to the community. Donors of all ages and backgrounds have given what they can to make the long-awaited project a reality as they recognize the many benefits of public libraries in the community.
