What we're about

EFFECTIVE MONDAY, FEBRUARY 8: In response to staff hours being put towards vaccine call centers, PWPL will offer Contact-Free Curbside Pickup Service only at Bull Run, Chinn Park, Haymarket Gainesville, and Manassas City Libraries. The physical buildings are not open to the public, but other services - including phone assistance - will remain available, even while many staff are working at the call centers.

Our Digital Library provides free access to thousands of online and digital resources including e-books, audiobooks, newspapers, and Premium Websites. Prince William County and City of Manassas residents can access all of the library's digital services without visiting a library branch by signing up for a Digital Library Card.

To sign up, visit http://www.pwcgov.org/digitallibrary and select "Don't have a PWPL library card?" to register for a digital library card.

Prince William Public Libraries offers special events and programs for adults: arts and crafts, genealogy, conversation groups and ESL, gaming.
