When temperatures climb above 90 degrees, public buildings across Lane County open their doors as cooling spaces. Libraries, community centers and other facilities don’t change their regular hours but allow people to come inside and escape the heat. 

Lane County updates their list each year of these cooling spaces covering locations in Eugene, Springfield, Cottage Grove, Florence, Oakridge, Veneta and more. The information in the map and list below was last updated by country administrators in May.
