Dublin, OH -- April 12, 2023. Patron Point announced today that Terrebonne Parish Library System (TPLS) in Houma, Louisiana, has selected our patron engagement platform to support its mission to provide 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.
With more than 294,550 items in its collection, patrons of TPLS have access to high-quality learning resources and the assistance needed to take full advantage of them.
TPLS has 7 full-service branches that offer books, movies, and music, with their digital versions to match. The library system offers an online research database for business, local history, and genealogy. Also available are public computers, meeting rooms for reservation, and an expansive calendar of events for all ages.
The Terrebonne Parish Main Library was recognized for Community Service Leadership in 2008 and 2012 by the Internal Revenue Service.
TPLS has been recognized with the Louisiana Library Association's 2004 and 2022 James O. Modisette Awards, which honor the best public library system in Louisiana.
TPLS has also been awarded the Public Library Association's 2014 Innovation Award and has been a top 15 finalist for the National Medal for Museum and Library Service awarded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services in 2013, 2015, 2016, and 2018. This is one of the top honors a library and museum can receive.
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 that 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.
