About the Library: In 1978, Poolesville Library became Montgomery County’s 19th branch, opening as the Western County Library, a joint project with Montgomery County Public Schools, housed in the Poolesville Jr./Sr. High School. All library materials, both school and public, were shelved together in the Media Center. Adult fiction and some other materials were sequestered until after school hours when they became available for check out. The public had access to the library after school and on weekends (including Sundays). During this time, the name of the library was changed to Poolesville Library.
On April 15, 1991, the library opened in its current storefront location on Fisher Avenue, where the library could maintain morning hours as well. The new library was built in the Poolesville Towne Center.It is a leased storefront facility of over 6000 square ft. In November 2000-February 2001, the library closed for renovation when it expanded into the vacant space left by the Poolesville Horse and Tack Shop.
