The Multnomah County Library system included a branch in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Portland from 1912 until 1971. The first Brooklyn branch library opened at the corner of Milwaukie and Powell on March 20, 1912.[1] Between 1913 and 1917 the library moved to a fireproof building across the street.[2][3] In 1930 the Portland fire department needed this block, and the library moved to 3216 SE 21st,[4][5] just north of Powell Boulevard, where it remained until the library lost the lease for that building in 1971.[6]
