Catalog Upgrade

The Newport Public Library is joining the Chinook Library Network. This means, all Lincoln County residents can access every library in the County with a single library card!

This also means, we are upgrading our online catalog. This upgrade will result in brief interruptions in borrowing and online account access.

Key Impacts and Dates

Friday, Feb. 21, 2025 :


Last day for Interlibrary Loan (ILL) requests before the migration. Requests will resume after March 10.

Thursday, March 6, 2025:


Last day to return materials before check-in pauses until March 11. No items will be due during this period, and no overdue fines will accrue.

Friday-Monday, March 7-10, 2025: Catalog Freeze:


Patrons can check out materials but cannot place holds, access accounts, or register for a new library card. Bring your physical library card for all transactions.

Saturday, March 8, 2025:


Newport Public Library Closed for migration.

Tuesday, March 11, 2025: New Catalog Launch


The system goes live, and library services resume. All PINs will reset to the last four digits of the primary phone number on file.

Important Reminders

Reading History :


Will not transfer to the new system. Save your history before March 7.

Library Closures:


Some libraries may close ahead of March 11. Check with your local library for hours.

Enhanced Features:


The upgraded system will offer improved search capabilities, a more user-friendly interface, and better integration with digital resources.
