Library closure extended through May 31

Following the guidance of public health officials, the Wilsonville Public Library will extend its closure through May 31, 2020.

Due dates for library materials have been extended through May 31. No overdue fines will accrue during this time, so feel free to hold on to your checked out items. However, if you are able to do so in a safe manner, we ask that you bring your finished library materials back to the library. This will make the library’s reopening easier by ‘flattening the curve’ of returned items.

While the library building remains closed, many library services and programs continue to be available.

Library staff are available during normal library operating hours by phone and email. Have a question about your account, or something to ask a librarian? Just call the library at 503-682-2744 or email us at reference@wilsonvillelibrary.org.

Digital books for all ages are available through a variety of platforms as eBooks and eAudiobooks. Through LINCC (Libraries in Clackamas County), we offer a huge library of online resources, including language learning, reference materials, magazine articles, and more. Coming soon, we will have online magazines and movies!

All of our online resources can be accessed with your LINCC library card. Don’t have a library card? Sign up for a free eCard to get immediate access to library online resources, including eBooks and eAudiobooks.

Children’s programs are available online, including Storytime (“Stories to Go!”) and Baby Time (“Baby Rhyme Time”), along with a live Toddler Time. These programs stream through Facebook and YouTube. Visit our website for the latest videos.

Teen events occur on Friday afternoons, with a variety of Game Days and Escape Rooms using Zoom.

Adult programs meet online as well, including Book Club and the new “Article Club,” both on Zoom.

Stay connected with us through our social media channels on Facebook (WilsonvilleLibrary) and Twitter (@wvlibrary), and join in the conversations. We are sharing staff book recommendations, behind-the-scenes photos, and additional online resources, not to mention Scavenger Hunts, Books vs. Movies polls, and Book Spine Poetry challenges. Join us online!

We look forward to reopening and seeing you soon. Stay healthy and safe.
