Albina Library

Albina Library is a public library in North Portland offering educational materials and services to the wider Multnomah County area. The building houses resources for different age groups and provides spaces designed for learning and community use.

The library opened in 1906 and has been an educational center in Portland for over a century. Its long history shows how the building has adapted to serve changing community needs.

The library serves its community in multiple languages and provides different programs and spaces for each age group. Visitors notice how the building adapts to welcome families, students, and adults alike.

The library is currently undergoing renovation and service adjustments are in place through spring 2025. During this period, patrons can use other branch locations in the Multnomah County Library system.

The building features the brick exterior and classic design of a Carnegie library from the early 1900s. An ongoing expansion will roughly double the interior space while keeping the distinctive original facade intact.
