About

In 2011, an ambitious group of Aloha residents formed the Aloha Community Library Association (ACLA) with the mission to provide library services to an underserved area of Washington County.  The Aloha Community Library opened its doors in September 2012, and eventually joined Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS) as a member library in July 2016.
