Starting this August, the Tillamook Main Library will be undergoing construction on the roof and exterior siding of the building. This work will replace a piece of the roof that has had water intrusion problems for several years, increase the size of the building’s gutters, and refurbish the exterior building façade including new paint. The goal of this project is to maintain the taxpayer investment in this building and make sure that it serves the people of Tillamook County for many years to come.
The library will remain open during the construction work and library services will continue as usual. Library users can expect more noise during the project through August and September. Storytimes will be on hiatus through the end of September with the schedule resuming in October. While work is being completed on the west end of the building access from the ADA parking spot behind the library building will be limited, so we recommend that people use the front parking lot on 3rd and Stillwell for accessible parking.
The current Tillamook Main Library building opened in 2006. It was built based on the generous support of the voters of Tillamook County and the support of community members who donated both time and money to establish a centerpiece to the Tillamook County Library system. The main library houses the majority of the Tillamook County library collection as well as community meeting rooms, public internet access, and printing facilities. The building also includes the official County Law Library, the Tillamook County Library Foundation bookstore, and library outreach services including the bookmobile.
