History

The second regional library to be built in Prince William County, Bull Run Library was opened to the public on June 25, 1994. Bull Run Library provided much-needed library services to the rapidly growing western side of the county, which - at the time - had only the small neighborhood library in Haymarket. Together with Chinn Park Library, Bull Run Library was built from funds generated by an $11 million bond referendum approved in 1988.


Bull Run Library reopened in September 2022 after extensive renovations including a new Makerspace; additional Study Room; updated children and young adult areas; New Dedicated Tween Area; open floorplan; and new furniture. Read more about the renovation here.


The 25,000 square-foot building features 30 public computers, an AWE learning station, a 125-seat Community Room, a Quiet Study Room, and a children's and young adult area. This branch also offers a Contact-Free Pickup, mobile printing, proctoring services, and TTY service.
