Welcome to your library. We now have an on-line
library catalog. That means that you, as a library patron,
can search the library catalog over the Internet for any library
materials that are available through the Gorge LINK library
system. This also gives you the opportunity to review your
library account to see how many items you have checked out,
have on hold, or are now available. Below you will find the
instructions for using the Gorge Link On-Line Library Catalog.
I encourage you to take advantage of this 21st century tool.
Celebrate intellectual freedom. Read. Explore. Become a life-long
learner.
