From the meeting
The September 2026 CEO report said the Library added four nature discovery backpacks in partnership with Sustainable Orangeville and Watersheds Canada. The backpacks - Splish Splash, Things with Wings, Night Sky, and Urban Explorer - launched in early August 2026 with a hands-on workshop. The initiative is already live, which makes it useful for partnership and program-supply follow-on conversations.
It also shows the Library is continuing to expand the Library of Things collection.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Town of Orangeville issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Orangeville's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Town of Orangeville before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more library government opportunities in ON?
