Thomas Jefferson Library

The Thomas Jefferson branch of the Fairfax County Public Library first opened on January 4, 1954 in the rear of the Family Barber Shop in the Graham Road Shopping Center. As the Library grew, it moved into an apartment in Jefferson Village Apartments, until 1962 when the present building was constructed on Arlington Blvd. As one of the County's oldest branches, Thomas Jefferson serves what has become a stable, older and ethnic neighborhood. Thomas Jefferson continues to be a guiding presence in the community as it moves into the technological and multicultural dynamics of the new millennium.
