- Community Room for Library programs and large group gatherings;

Sustainability Design Goals
The remodeled building has been designed to be as energy efficient and sustainable as possible through the use of natural ventilation, day lighting, selection of materials, energy efficient lighting and mechanical units, and controls to monitor and adjust for use and time. The project did not apply for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification although the LEED scorecard was used by the design team to track sustainable features and elements in the landscape/site, building design, and systems. The project has been registered with the US Green Building Council.
Tualatin Public Library has won the 2009 Award for Excellence in Environmental Design.
Vision Statement
"The enhancement of the Tualatin Library will create an inviting community center where learning, discovery, and interaction will flourish, expressing a welcoming civic identity, embracing Tualatin's values and future.

6:30 PM to 9:00 PM - Tualatin Public Library: Repeats every month on the third Tuesday until Fri Jan 04 2013, 6:30pm - 8:00pmThe mission of the Tualatin Public Library Foundation is 'to provide continued support for current programs and projects as well as establishing a perpetual fund for ongoing support.'
The Tualatin Public Library Foundation is looking for you!
Do you use the library on a regular basis? Have your kids done the Summer Reading Program? Do you attend the classes and programs available for free? Do you want to be a part of making sure that the library maintains its excellence and strives to add even more so that each citizen of Tualatin finds something they are looking for?
Then consider becoming a member of the Tualatin Library Foundation Board. At present the Board is made up of people who meet once a month to determine how best to provide ways for people to provide the funding to increase the quality of service, materials, and technology of this wonderful institution.
A board member should be willing to learn the importance of the Foundation and its mission, and to work diligently to help raise the funds needed for the items the library administration sees a need for. It would help if you are already involved in the community and know people who will help us reach our goals.
