Value of Your Library

The Newberg Public Library brings an array of services to the community that are supported financially by the City of Newberg (91%),  Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service (5%), Fines(2%),  and Non-Resident Library Card purchases (2%).  

Library services are available to anyone in Newberg at no charge and to non-residents through a number of programs.    See the page on non-resident library cards for more information for non-residents of the City of Newberg.

While the library's services are viewed as "free" by many, the value they provide a community can be calculated.    In our community,  for each dollar spent on the library (heat, lights, books, office supplies, program supplies, staff, etc), the community receives $4.50 in return.    See how much you personally receive with the Library Use Value Calculator below:
