Renovation of a library in Alexandria, Virginia. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a library.

Sherwood Regional Library - 2020 (Mt Vernon District): $18,000,000 is estimated for the renovation of the Sherwood Community Library. Renovation is required to upgrade building systems and infrastructure that are well beyond the end of their life cycle and meet current and future operational needs of the Library System. This Library is located off a main thoroughfare and is unique in that it services a large middle school population from the Walt Whitman Intermediate School, located next door. This location has suffered from recurring roofing problems, inadequate electrical wiring to support device usage by customers, and a myriad of other facility related repairs/incidents. In its present configuration, it is plagued with an antiquated layout that does not adequately reflect modern library design and usage. Further, a recent rise in incidents has resulted in a Security Site Survey which recommended changes to the layout and significant security enhancements. Based on the age and condition of the facility it is difficult to make significant changes to the overall layout or outfit the facility with the infrastructure required to support the technology requested by library customers. This project is proposed as part of the 2020 Library Bond Referendum. Project is included Fairfax County FY 2023 - 2027 CIP. As of November 4, 2024, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
