Library Closure

Effective Saturday, March 14, the Corvallis-Benton County Library will close its Main Library and branch libraries in Alsea, Monroe, and Philomath through the end of March. All library programs and outreach events have been canceled as well, and Bookmobile stops are temporarily suspended during this time.

There will be no fines charged to library accounts during this time, and we encourage you to simply keep items that you have checked out until we reopen. We will share more information as we have it!

Find the full statement from the City of Corvallis here.

Just because our library is temporarily closed it doesn’t mean we can’t still support it!

They have a fantastic selection of digital offerings your can check out with just your library card and all for free. Check it out (pun intended):

Take a turn around our online shop and adopt a new friend, or several. Just like all our books sales, all proceeds go directly to supporting our library!
