Oregon Battle of the Books

The Oregon Battle of the Books (OBOB) is a statewide voluntary reading motivation and comprehension program sponsored by the Oregon Association of School Libraries in conjunction with a Library Services and Technology Act grant. 

Beaverton City Library staff support students and teams by providing free unofficial grades 3-5 and grades 6-8 questions for teams to practice with throughout the OBOB season. These questions will be available on this page in early January, 2026.

Join us this fall and winter for OBOB book clubs at Main and Murray Scholls locations, and Practice Battles during winter break.
