The Truro location serves as headquarters for the Colchester-East Hants Public Library and is located in the Provincial Normal School building. The Normal School was constructed in 1878 and was home to teacher training until 1961. Students came from all over North America and graduates taught in every part of the province. The building is now a protected heritage building, and was even featured on a Canadian Stamp in 1994.
