Fourth Street Bulletin: August 2010, Issue 1

Welcome to our Fourth Street Bulletin.  It will provide you with news and interesting tidbits about our award-winning Library, located at Fourth Street and D Avenue in Lake Oswego. We hope you enjoy it!

Lake Oswego Library

Public Library Most Popular Movie Source

According to a recent survey by OCLC, (a nonprofit library research organization), the U.S. public is checking out a whopping 2.1 million movies each day from public libraries.  That’s more than they rent from Netflix, Redbox, or Blockbuster!  Of course, FREE is a good price.  Lake Oswego Pubic Library is regionally renowned for our excellent movie collection.  We’ve got recent releases galore, and also foreign films, movie classics, and educational DVDs.  Check ‘em out!

The Library is Your Summer Resource

Traveling this summer?  Sticking to home sweet home?  No matter, our Library provides free entertainment and enrichment for you.   Learn something new, read something old, get lost in a movie.  It’s all waiting for you at the Library.  For free.
