To help contain the spread of COVID-19, the Library of Virginia is closed to the public until further notice. Library staff are working and responding to users by phone and email during regular business hours (Mon–Fri, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM). Let us know how we can help you.
Library users who have books or other materials checked out from us are asked not to return them until the Library reopens. Loan periods will be extended and no fines will accrue while the Library is closed for the current public health emergency. Please stay safe and don’t worry about those items right now.
