Requests must be made a minimum of 48 hours in advance.

Leesburg, VA (May 29, 2020) – Beginning June 2, the Thomas Balch Library will offer limited in-library research, by appointment only, on Tuesdays, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., and Thursdays, from 1 to 3 p.m. This service will be in addition to virtual reference requests.
