February is National Library Lovers Month! As library staff, it is no surprise that we love libraries, and we hope you do too. Why not take a moment this month to swing by your local branch and share that love with our hardworking staff?
Since we have an extensive collection of gardening books, soil test kits and gardening magazines, seed libraries are a natural, homegrown extension of our services.
As we usher in the new year, it is once again time to think about what we want to achieve over the next 12 months. Give yourself the best shot at keeping your resolution this year with help from your local library!
While the weather outside may be frightful, the board games in Fairfax County Public Library's Library of Things are so delightful!
