A negative of the Old Town Reading Room exterior with a bicycle chained to a pole out front. A large sign in the window reads 'OLD TOWN READING ROOM, Multnomah County Library.' A smaller sign in the window reads 'The Old Town Reading Room is two years old!' Inside the window are pink, blue and white balloons. Just inside the door stands a man browsing books on a reading rack. The reading room was located at 219 NW Couch St. and served the area from 1988-1997.
