Excellent library with comprehensive programs and a helpful team. I find the history and international affairs sections to be robust. Signing up for a library card was quick and easy. When I need to focus, the quiet study area is perfect. There's a nice trail out back for walking too.
I been there so many times. My daughter borrow books a lot. Also there’s a lots of books. But it’s little Loud.
Pretty good library but they need to actually shush the screaming toddlers here. If you find a spot closer to the back of the side of the library it's a little better but the front center area of the kids section always sounds crazy and the nearby tables can hear. Bathrooms could be cleaner and need a little bit of a renovation.
Nice branch ... small but a decent new releases section. And easy pickup of books on hold
Librarian at the center desk was unfriendly. Rec room had inadequate air conditioning and air flow. Restrooms were not clean and reeked of urine. They fly the gold trimmed United States military war flag
Libraries are awesome of course. This one has that neighborhood feel to it. From the staff to the kids to the parents to the adults. Small groups using side rooms. It's extra special.
A great local library with very friendly staff. I was looking for a book today but it wasn't available in the library. The staff helped me locate it at another close by library and even called to have it held for me.
Fairfax has great facilities - be sure to come take advantage of them.

The library is located right next to the McLean Community Center and shares its boundaries with the McLean park. It is a perfect place to spend a lazy afternoon with great collection of books. The staff at this location are extremely polite and helpful.
The book-hold system works perfectly fine and you can be in and out within 5 minutes if you know what you are looking for.

An incredible library! The librarians are all super helpful, and the selection of books is great. I really appreciate their commitment to elevating literature of all topics, especially diverse books. Holds from other Fairfax libraries arrive quickly. The design of the building is beautiful too. I love visiting and browsing the books. Public libraries are a blessing!
Good building and adequate parking, most days. Very limited, especially in Junior Fiction, but this is a system-wide problem with the Fairfax Public Library System.
This library has good book collection, is located just beside park & well designed, with lots of natural light coming through glass walls.
