Since I was carrying my daughter it was a bit frustrating that the wave to open doors weren't working and the elevator to the second floor was being repaired but there were ample bathrooms and even an infant care/nursing room. The baby storytime was fun and I appreciated the casual open playtime afterwards especially since I got there a little late. Overall the librarian and other participants were friendly and respectful. Looking forward to attending more library events with my little one!

The library is nicely organized and spaced out throughout. It can be a busy and robust location with visits coming and going. Yet, never too much noise. Staff is helpful when asked for assistance.

It did serve a need in terms of offering speedy free wifi and places to sit with charging, as well as squeaky clean bathrooms. And a security guard.

The rooms are available on a first come first serve basis where you can work distraction free for up to two hours if there's a line. In the middle of summer I get to go to this library wearing my favorite hoodies. I say this with no complaints; I breathe better and think clearer when there's air. Outside of that it's your regular library with the standard amenities. Ample computers, tables, outlets, newspapers, etc.

Unfortunately the kids section is on the same level as the adults and the level of noise from…read morescreaming kids made it impossible to focus. Kids need their spaces in libraries, of course, but either on a separate floor or a walled off space. Not the kids or librarians fault - but open floor plans in libraries create this issue.

They have special collections and databases on Virginia, the Civil War, Military history, and the Underground Railroad. There are a few computers available with internet. It's a great place to hang out if you want to read or study. They have beautiful murals and great artwork. It's right in downtown Leesburg, and there is parking.

I know Fairfax County libraries typically have the same offerings, but this one is unique and…read morespecial to me. I love how accessible this library is for walkers and bikers in the town of Herndon. You can enter from the bottom floor or the second floor from the outside. The bottom floor has conference rooms, a foyer with seating, local bulletins, and the Maker Lab. The top floor is where there's a huge communal quiet room with dividers for individual studying, the books, and computers. I would recommend chatting with any librarian here to find out everything the library has to offer. It is a LOT. I am a fan of the Maker Lab.

We were new to the area and it wasn't hard to get a library card. Initially we went to the help desk and were redirected to the check out counter. Once we gave them basic info like a piece of mail with our address and phone number we were able to get library cards and info about the Libby application for ebooks, audiobooks and magazines. New in 2022 there is also Kanopy, an on-demand streaming video service. Each account is assigned 5 "play credits" per month. There were a decent number of international and indie titles to choose from. Overall the library is smaller than others I have been to but it seems cozy. There seems to be a regular board game meetup that meets downstairs on Saturday. You should show up earlier rather than later from the specified time range though since after they form groups and start playing it may be harder to join in on a game until one group finishes their play session.

This library is one of several locations in Prince William County set up for absentee voting. A side entrance to the library - on the left hand side of the building is used for this activity - I'm assuming so as to not disrupt the normal everyday activities of library patrons.

This library absolutely hits!…read more Granted, I've never made it past the children's book section but that only means there is so much for me to explore. This library is a grand two levels and is open on Sundays which makes this a great way to spend a rainy day weekend. The librarians are SO friendly and their selection of new children's books and graphic novels is vast. My family and I are avid bookstore goers and library visitors but for some reason we always find new things to read here. They have several study rooms and conference rooms available. We had a Girl Scout meeting that involved a bunch of printing and research needs -- their online reservation system made it so easy to book. It's prime Fairfax City location makes this a great place to run a bunch of errands at once. I recommend grabbing a book and reading at the Layered cafe next door for the ultimate cozy day treat.

It's clean and bright, and has great community events! My favorite section has to be the area where the books are themed. There's been spooky themed books for Halloween and now Fall in Love Blind Date with a book. It's in the young adult section near the high top tables. There's also a lot of seating downstairs and upstairs. I also adore all the plants they have on display. It's giving cozy vibes all around for all types of patrons.
