Multnomah County opens one of its largest libraries after $27M upgrade

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – After more than a year of construction, Multnomah County opened the new Holgate Library in Southeast Portland on Saturday -- marking one of the largest libraries in the county.

The new two-story library, at the same location at 7905 Southeast Holgate Boulevard in Portland, tripled in size compared to the original building and will support one of the most culturally diverse areas in the region, said Multnomah County Library Communications Manager Liz Sauer.
