Answerland is an online reference service provided by Oregon's libraries. You may chat live with a librarian or e-mail your question. (Note: Because the Answerland service is staffed by Oregon librarians as well as backup librarians around the country, you may not be chatting with a local librarian.)

NOTE: As of November 14, 2025 the Trillium Room is no longer available as a meeting and study space, however our four pods are still available to reserve. The Trillium Room is being converted into a makerspace that will feature 3D printers, a Glowforge, and additional tools and software to support design, fabrication, and creative exploration. The Makerspace project is generously funded by the Holly Grace Jones Endowment of the West Linn Library Foundation and is scheduled to open sometime in 2026. More details to come!
The mission of the West Linn Public Library is to engage, connect, and inspire our community and to be a resource for information, knowledge, and artistic and literary expression, providing the best in traditional services, new technologies, and innovative programs.
