NCW Libraries Oroville, WA
NCW Libraries* is proud to serve the residents of Chelan, Douglas, Ferry, Grant, and Okanogan Counties since 1960. Our 14,497 square-mile service area is roughly the size of Massachusetts and Connecticut combined – making us geographically the largest library district in Washington State.
We operate 30 community libraries, and provide service to our most rural residents through our popular Mail Order Library and a bookmobile. The Library’s website provides library cardholders with free access to eBooks and digital audiobooks as well as a large number of online resources, including LinkedIn Learning, the New York Times, Consumer Reports, Rosetta Stone, and more. We also provide outreach services to Head Start programs, preschools, nursing homes, senior retirement centers, youth detention facilities, jails, farmers markets, and more.
We are able to expand our reach through partnerships with school districts, community colleges, healthcare providers, local businesses, and community resource providers.
*In 2020 North Central Regional Library changed its name to NCW Libraries to better reflect the communities we serve and this place we call home.
