An integral part of the Burke community for over 20 years, the Pohick Regional Library opened in 1987.  It is one of the Fairfax County Public Library’s busiest branches with an annual circulation of nearly one million items.  The 24,400 square foot facility houses approximately 175,000 volumes.  The library grounds are much admired and enjoyed by our visitors and are maintained by a dedicated volunteer group of expert gardeners.

Programs are offered for all ages including preschool, children and young adult events.  Three adult book discussion groups meet monthly, including one group that reads classic literature.

The Pohick Regional Library’s loyal volunteers provide an amazing level of support for their branch with over 10,000 hours of service annually. The Friends of the Pohick Regional Library enhance library service to our community by generously donating their time and funding for a wide array of items. The proceeds of their ongoing and biannual book sales include funding special programs, program support, volunteer recognition and furnishings

Conveniently located 2 miles from the Fairfax County Parkway at the corner of Old Keene Mill and Sydenstricker Road, we hope that you’ll visit and let our experienced, friendly staff help you.
