Bringing the Library to the Community
Access to books and reading together is one of the best ways to build a lifelong love of reading.
Beaverton City Library's Library on Wheels (LOW) program helps get books in the hands of kids in child care centers and in-home child cares who may have trouble regularly visiting the library in person.
Every three weeks, library staff bring a bag of paperback picture books to child care facilities, rotating the books between 45 child cares in the Beaverton area. Library staff also provide storytimes when visiting child care centers.
In 2019, LOW served more than 15,000 children in Beaverton and the surrounding area.
