About Hillsdale Library

Hillsdale Library was awarded LEED™ (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold certification as a green building in 2004, the year the Southwest Portland library reopened in its new location. (Read about Hillsdale Library history.) A number of design elements contribute to the building's official green status, including access to public transit, water and energy efficiency, materials that come from local manufacturers, and high indoor air quality.

Multnomah County Library's systemwide catalog — two million books, periodicals, music, movies and more — serves patrons of Hillsdale Library and all neighborhood libraries. Hillsdale also houses collections of materials in Spanish and Russian, and has Spanish and Russian-speaking staff. Patrons enjoy e-books and downloadable music; research and reading resources; and library events and services, including those especially for kids and teens.

Hillsdale's meeting room is available at no charge for community meetings and events on a first-come, first-served basis. It has a 50-person capacity. Small, private study rooms are also available.
