Since we can't leave our houses for exotic locales, read a book to bring the locale to you! Nothing transports you elsewhere better than a book, and a good travelogue just might beat the quarantine blues.

The Tualatin Public Library prides itself on being a cozy, communal space for people to hunker down and relax. Visitors to our library are greeted by a massive mastodon fossil that was unearthed nearby in 1962. When quarantine isn't letting you enjoy our fireplace and mastodon fossils, why not check out our digital content on our website? |
