Heritage Public Library serves the citizens of Charles City and New Kent counties in Virginia. Organized as a private not-for-profit corporation, it first opened its doors to the public on August 4 1981. It is governed by an 11-member Library Board. Each county supervisor can appoint one member and those 8 members can then appoint up to 3 additional members. All Board members serve rotating 4-year terms.

The library is not a governmental entity of either county, but operates under a contractual relationship with the two counties. Heritage Public Library is the smallest multi-jurisdictional public library in Virginia.
