Westlake Porter Public Library, Public library in Westlake, Ohio, US
The Westlake Porter Public Library spans 75,000 square feet and contains more than 176,000 volumes with 500 periodical subscriptions for residents of western Cuyahoga County.
Leonard Porter established the library in 1884 with a $1,000 donation and book collection in Dover Township, which later became Westlake in 1957.

The library adopted a one-eyed gray and black tabby cat named Jiggers as its mascot in 1981, who moved with the institution to its current location in 1985.
