This inaugural Poetry is Public is Poetry installation is located near the main entrance of the Cedarbrae Library; Rosemary Sullivan's words are permanently mounted in bronze lettering and embedded into the walkway. This collaborative endeavour involves the City of Toronto's Cultural Services and Transportation Services, working in close co-operation with the Toronto Public Library and the Toronto Public Library Foundation.

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
