All Aboard! We are building a new library in the Monroe/South Benton County, Oregon area. By using Monroe's historic train depot as a focal point at the new library we are bringing our community's past into the present. As in the past, train depots became a central meeting place in communities, our new library-with restored train depot-will continue in that tradition. We are a branch of the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library and we bring people and information together!

10 things seen at the Monroe Library...
1. 12 tiny pumpkins waiting to be picked up by Story Time kids
2. Children's author Alexandra Day and her dog Carl
3. The newest Skippyjon Jones book, "Skippyjon Jones, Lost in Spice"
4. 10 shelves full of patron holds waiting to be picked up (it used to be 3 shelves!)
5. 8 shelves full of DVDs waiting to be checked out (it used to be 2 shelves!)
6. A $500 check granted from Sterling Savings for SBLP (thanks Bobbye!)
7. The entire back room spotlessly shelved in Dewey Decimal order... thanks Monroe Subs!
8. A few sick patrons looking for books to tide them through the flu. (Yikes!)
9. 8 little boys crowded around one children's computer playing one game together!
10. One happy Lori back from vacation and taking care of everyone's information needs in Monroe.
