Herndon Fortnightly Library

Beautiful and clean, with quiet study rooms and plenty of activities for adults and children. There’s ample parking, both covered and uncovered, and the staff is super friendly and helpful.

A beautiful library right in the heart of Herndon. There's potential parking nearby, and it's really neat to walk into the big open airy center of the building underneath it's dome. The librarians were super helpful, and my kids had fun reading books in the kid section, doing a scavenger hunt for snowflakes, and playing with busy boards

In downtown Herndon is a large building with a dome that can be seen throughout the historic center. It looks like an astrological center, but it's a public library. Named after one of Virginia's oldest women's clubs, the library underwent a major renovation. Today, it's a library and community center for a close-knit neighborhood. Here's why you should go: 1) Books: The collection is very large, especially the children's section. My four-year-old daughter sat for over an hour reading through all sorts of books from Fancy Nancy to the Bernstein Bears to Clifford. If we didn't have dinner reservations nearby, she would have spent hours there. 2) Space: The design is stunning from outside in. When you walk in through the bottom floor, you walk up a spiral staircase up to where the dome is.

This library feels like something out of a book, it is truly a sight to see! I can't wait to go back, you should check it out! (See what I did there?)

It is a small and cozy library with a limited books collection but is very good and calm...also the syaff is very helpful...the library offers activities for kids and adults both almost every week...it is very good place for kids who love to read
