About Library Of Virginia...
The Library of Virginia—the Commonwealth’s state library and archives—is the leading source of information on Virginia’s history, government and people. Housing more than 134 million items, the Library’s collections document and illustrate the lives of both famous Virginians and everyday citizens.
The Library offers research and reference support to state officials, consulting services to public libraries and government agencies across the state, and administers a range of federal, state and local grant programs. We also provide robust educational resources and programming on Virginia history and culture for students and educators, along with exhibitions, lectures, author talks, and public events open to all. Each year, our online offerings draw nearly 2 million visits, while our on-site activities welcome thousands of attendees.
Beyond our main building in downtown Richmond, the Library also oversees the State Records Center in Henrico County, which stores inactive, non-permanent records from state and local agencies.
