This delivery locations specification document pertains to the Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS) RFP for physical library materials, shelf-ready processing, bibliographic records, and collection support services serving sixteen library locations across Washington County, Oregon. WCCLS operates a centralized warehouse facility located in Hillsboro, Oregon, equipped with a loading dock capable of accepting pallet shipments seven days per week. While WCCLS may serve as a single delivery point for library materials, the selected vendor must demonstrate capability to ship to all sixteen library locations throughout Washington County, which maintain varying capacities for receiving. The combined annual ordering volume of WCCLS and its partner libraries is anticipated to match the FY25-26 ordering volume levels.

Vendors responding to this RFP may propose for any or all material formats and shelf-ready services specified, allowing specialization in particular areas such as media or print materials. WCCLS reserves the right to award either a single contract or multiple contracts to different vendors. The awarded contract(s) will be established solely with Washington County and WCCLS; however, the vendor must agree to extend identical pricing and discounts to twelve partner agencies operating within the Cooperative, enabling these partners to independently establish their own accounts, billing arrangements, and shipping relationships while receiving contract pricing. Vendors must commit to the quoted service levels and discounts for a minimum contract term, with details regarding pricing structures, renewal options, and specific discount requirements outlined in the complete RFP documentation.
