So pretty and relaxing. It's not grave-silent, which is a relief; one can feel free to accidentally drop something or cough without feeling like everyone within a hundred paces wants one dead. Staff is very friendly and helpful, even when you're a dummy and missed something right in front of you. There's a place for you to check out THINGS, such as instruments or board games, which I find unspeakably charming. Lovely place.

This is an absolutely awesome library! The facilities are outstanding and the staff incredibly helpful. We joined especially for loaning out books for our toddler of 20minths, and the array of board books is fantastic, but we were even more pleased when we were informed about the calendar of events and workshops that take place on a daily basis across the network of libraries which is an incredible service. We have since then enjoyed many days at the library and especially enjoy the tables and chairs for the toddlers, along with browsing and enjoying the large array of books for our own interests. Well done Beaverton and all staff involved.

It was a beautiful library 2 story building with lots of selections to choose from children's area was really big and there's a splash pad across the street. Great fun only reason o didn't give 5 starts is the homeless is kinda all over the place around here.

The building is big and beautiful. A very peaceful place with spaces well put together for families as well as places for study and work. It has a dedicated space for teens with books, graphic novels, seating and computers for them. It also has event areas and rooms you can reserve. Importantly, as my family had discussed it would be well suited for a zombie apocalypse home base. Totally defensible, with good view of surroundings and has solar power, not to mention books about everything.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Can we put them in the drop box

Stephanie Mitchell | Aug 16, 2020
Beaverton City Library | Aug 16, 2020

Yes, book drops at both buildings are open!

Ok email one more time. The main return box with sign closed. So could not return the books. There was an open one next to it but does not seem safe to put books in as people can easily take them? I see the answer to others saying yes?

char stewart | Aug 16, 2020
Vinny Alascia | Aug 16, 2020

The open one is the return for now. The books go into a cart and anyone would have a hard time getting to them through the slot. Plus staff empty it regularly to put the books in quarantine

Is the item return at the side of the library still available even when the library's closed?

Samvel Isaverdian | Aug 17, 2019
Frank O'Connor | Aug 17, 2019

Yes, it is.
