History

Established in 1908, the library was the first public library in Washington County. Supported by a tax levy from the beginning, the library became a city department in 1974. Since the late 1970s, the library has been located in the Municipal Services Building; its space was enlarged in the late 1990s.{{cite web|title=Forest Grove City Library|url=http://www.wccls.org/libraries/forestgrove|publisher=Washington County Cooperative Library Services|accessdate=September 10, 2015|archive-date=September 5, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150905070701/http://www.wccls.org/libraries/forestgrove|url-status=live}}
