Library

A place where students, staff and families can come relax, read, and grow.

The Westlawn Library is a warm and welcoming place for students, teachers, and parents.  It is the goal of the library program to develop and encourage a love of reading for all students and assist them in becoming critical thinkers who are effective and responsible users of information. Check out the links below to browse the Westlawn library catalog and to link to all the online databases that are available to FCPS students and staff.

Check out the Fairfax County Public Library for additional resources.

Please feel free to contact our library support staff with any questions or concerns.
