History

Henrico County Public Library System was created in 1963 through the Henrico County Board of Supervisors and a citizens' committee.[5] The library system was granted three area libraries: Fairfield, Lakeside, and Tuckahoe. Two branch libraries were also set up Varina and Sandston. In 1966, the Henrico County Free Library System was established. The name was changed to Henrico County Public Library in 1967. By 1998, all buildings had public library access. In 1999, classes were created to teach community patrons how to use computers and access the Internet. Henrico County Public Library and Henrico County Public Schools partnered to provide students with access to students' school networks as well as library networks.[6]
