Message from the LIbrary Director

1/25/2021

The West Linn Public Library is here to serve you, regardless of the circumstances! 

We continue to prioritize the health and safety of our patrons, staff, and greater community during this ongoing global pandemic. The Library will continue to follow public health orders and guidance.

PGE work

PGE and ODOT need the library to cancel curbside service on Friday, Feb. 19 for work to restore power to the community. We are extremely sorry for this inconvenience, as we know many of those with appointments on Friday had already rescheduled once because of the weather. We share your frustration. 

No holds will be pulled until Thursday next week. If you need longer than that, please reach out at wlref@lincc.org or 503-656-7853.

Thank you for understanding. 

Youth Virtual Bookshelves!

While the library is closed to the public,  we understand that our patrons miss the experience of browsing our displays and recommendation shelves!  So to recreate the satisfaction of finding the perfect book on display, we offer you a chance to take a virtual tour of our curated bookshelves!

1000 Books Before Kindergarten

1000 Books Before Kindergarten is a self-paced early literacy program that encourages caregivers to read 1000 books with their child before they enter school. Reading to children builds vocabulary and language skills, and prepares them to enter kindergarten with many other needed skills for success.  Any child age 6 or younger who has not yet entered kindergarten can register.
