Yachats library to seek membership in county system while staying volunteer-run
Summary
Council President Nicole Hedlund said the local library is moving toward joining the county library system so residents can request books across the county; she said volunteers will continue operating the Yachats library, with the transition expected later this year or early next year.
City Council President Nicole Hedlund said the city received an "exciting update from the library" and that it "looks like we are moving forward to be part of the county library system." She said that if the process completes, Yachats residents will be able to request books from other county libraries and have them delivered locally.
Hedlund emphasized the city will continue to operate the library with volunteers: "we still get to run the library with our wonderful volunteers." She gave a tentative timing of "sometime later this year or early next year" for the start of the process but did not provide a formal date or a council action taken during the meeting recap.
