Cathlamet Blanche Bradley Public Library

In 1931, Mrs. Lulu Heron, the wife of the Cathlamet Mayor, met with the Town Council requesting to use the council room as a public library. The council voted to accept the Woman’s Club Public Library as the town library. Decades later, Blanche Heron Bradley took possession of the Heron family home. In 1973 Bradley’s daughter donated the dwelling to the town. It was then named Blanche H. Bradley Memorial Center and housed the town library for the next 14 years. The house was sold in the late 1980’s and the library moved to its current location with a 100 Main Street address, on the second floor of the building which at that time housed Town Hall and the Fire Hall on the first floor. The library was relocated while the building was being remodeled from 2012 – 2014, making room for a community center on the first floor, increasing the library’s floor space, and shifting the library entrance to Columbia Street.
