The Port Orchard branch of Kitsap Regional Library has been serving the community since 1924, starting inside the Town Hall and later moving to a new municipal building in 1947. In 1964, the City of Port Orchard joined the Kitsap Regional Library system to expand services and resources. The library is housed in the old town post office, with additional privately funded additions and remodels in 1995 and 2013.
The Port Orchard branch is owned and maintained by the City of Port Orchard, while Kitsap Regional Library provides services, staff, and collections. The library is also supported by the Port Orchard Friends of the Library, a volunteer nonprofit group that raises funds for maintenance and programs through used book sales and fundraising events.
