ChargePoint EV charging available
Nik L.

I like this library. 1. It is clean. 2. Conveniently located off of West 38th St. 3. Easy to get to if coming through the Meijer parking lot from the east end of the library. If you are coming north on Moller Rd., it can be congested and you cannot enter from Moller Rd. if you are heading southbound. 4. They have EV charging stations with dedicated parking spots. The EV chargers are by ChargePoint and not free. The ChargePoint app is needed to start a charging session. 5. Staff is always helpful. 6. Bathrooms are clean.

This library is brand-Spankin new and is the much needed and deserved community center that this area has been missing for a long time. Half of the collection is brand new and the layout is nice and modern. Lots of natural light fills the space inside as kids play on the new computers, people read about making a resume and teenagers browse the shelves for summer reading books. "Nobody goes the library anymore" Uh, this place is full with a group of people as diverse as the community it serves. "I don't like the way it smells in there" It smells like new carpet and lumber. "Cantcha get all that stuff online now?" Oh yeah, you can get a lot of stuff online through Hoppla. Some people seriously have a negative impression that's ripe with misconceptions about our library system. This place is great.

Brand new location, and you can tell! Great selection of books and all new which is a plus. All the employees were polite and welcoming. Multiple computers and puzzles in the kids section, which is nicely placed on the opposite side of the adult books. Drive-thru book drop is also nice.

I love IPL's various locations around Indy. The library is a great place to plug in for a few hours without the obligation of purchasing a coffee. I've been to this location a few times. Always plenty of seating and they've installed power strips on most of the tables.

The space is gorgeous, flexible, and works beautifully for both professional and creative gatherings. We also host our neighborhood meetings here, which has been a great experience. The library consistently offers free classes, helpful staff, and access to a wide range of resources that make it more than just a place to study or work. It genuinely serves the community. When I am there working or attending events, I always try to sit by the windows overlooking the courtyard. The view of the skyline is a bonus and makes long days feel lighter. Highly recommend this library for events, meetings, or simply spending a productive day.

She loves the magnet wall, toys, and visual displays. I also check out digital books through the Libby app. The team there is always helpful. Thanks for all you do!

And they've got so much more than books. I visited today and was offered a tour of their Digital Media Lab. Patrons of the library can take advantage of several 3-D printers and only pay for supplies. Cricut machines and software are available to create card, paper products, tee shirt transfers, mugs and more. A state-of-the-art video studio and several audio studios are available for aspiring performers. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and proactively helpful. I got inspiration for an upcoming project that I am working on for a family reunion. One of the staffers printed off information that I needed for my project. The children's area of the library is huge, filled with books, discovery lab, reading areas and an activity room. Toddlers were playing with a few toys during my visit. Upstairs, I found a massive collection of videos and adult books. Several banks of computers were buzzing with patrons taking advantage of the free service. The staff was friendly and happy to show where to find specific books. Comfy seating and work spaces are scattered throughout the facility. Several conference rooms can be reserved for community use. The building is beautiful with a modern architecture that lets in lots of natural light. There is a featured art wall in the lower level. A bookstore and coffee shop are available near the main entrance. There is a parking garage on the south side of the building complete with EV plug stations. Restroom facilities are upscale and immaculate. The library is an easy 5 stars and sets a high standard for libraries.

The Indiana State Library is an amazing structure filled with art, history and information. The…read moreLibrary was built to house the collections of the State Library and the Historical Bureau. The original building was completed in 1934 and an addition was opened in 1976. Both sections have different styles with the older section more ornate and the newer section more functional. The building is currently undergoing renovation of the massive limestone exterior. But you can still visit the inside through the entrance on the Northside of the building. A librarian welcomed us as we walked in. We told her we wanted to visit and she described the layout of the library. There is a brochure to help guide your walk through the building. In addition to books, the library carries microfilm with decades of newspapers from across the State. There is a large room filled with computers and microfilm equipment available for public use. The older part of the library was constructed mainly of materials and labor from Indiana. The building is filed with incredible art (murals, carvings and more), marble foyers and magnificent chandeliers. There is a room filled with publications by Indiana authors. A large center for children has fun interactive displays with information about the Statehouse, genealogy and local children's authors. Librarians throughout the library are engaging and eager to assist with research. There is a small gift shop near the entrance called the Nook. Metered street parking is available adjacent to the building or within walking distance.

Despite working about a block away from the Indiana State Library for the last few years, I'd never…read moremade my way over until an event today required my attendance and I finally got the chance to check out this wonderful resource in downtown Indy. The Indiana State Library was first established in 1825. In 1841, a law established the library as a separate institution. In 1867, an act established that the law section of the library would be placed under the control of the Indiana Supreme Court - this arrangement remains true to this day. In 1895, the State Library was placed under the Board of Education. The Public Library Commission was established in 1899 and by 1925 what was officially known as the Indiana State Library was birthed out of a combining of the State Library and the Public Library Commission. In 1929, the General Assembly authorized a special levy with the expectation of raising one million dollars for a site and building that would be located at Senate and Ohio Streets - it remains at this location, though expanded, to this day. The State Library was originally conceived as primarily for use by state legislators and officials. It has obviously expanded greatly over the years. Any Indiana resident is eligible for a borrower's card (free). The library offers Ask-A-Librarian, exhibits, events/public workshops, a genealogy collection, county collections, federal documents, preservation/conservation services, rare books/manuscripts, reference and government support, the state data center, state documents, talking books, braille, Indiana Historical Bureau, Indiana Center for the Book, Indiana Authors Center, and the most recent creation is the Indiana Young Readers Center. You can take a virtual tour of the Indiana State Library. In fact, the online resources available are quite remarkable. Because it's downtown and more government connected it seems like it's much less utilized than the Indianapolis Public Library system, though in talking to the children's librarian I learned that they do tours (though this has been impacted by the pandemic) and the amount of kids who visit can vary greatly. The building itself is beautiful, though also surprisingly accessible in both street-level entrances and other entrances. State employees (badge required) can access the library via tunnels (I did this today - very confusing but convenient). I even contacted them via Ask-a-Librarian before my visit and messaged with "Jamie," who was able to explain how I could get to the library without going outside and how to get to the room where I would be (the Indiana History Reference Room). There are four floors, though for the most part only staff persons are allowed on the third and fourth floors. They also have a little store called the "Nook" near the main entrance that offers a variety of Indiana-themed items including books by Indiana authors. At one point, I know they carried my book (I had someone tell me they bought it there). I really fell in love with this place, though it's certainly more beneficial for the serious library user than the casual book-reader. It's a dream come true for genealogy research and for any research actually related to Indiana. However, if you've never been I definitely suggest a visit. It's within walking distance of the canal, Indiana History Center, and only 1-2 blocks from White River State Park. Make it a day. You'll enjoy it.

It was the pictures of the aquarium in the children's book section that really caught my eye. It captivated our toddler for at least 15 to 20 minutes watching all of the different fish and crabs. They have a great little kids play section along with the books and we noticed some folks heading out from a children's birthday party. It seems like a great location to host a gathering! I was enjoyed perusing the children's books- they had a variety in different languages and several highlighting different cultural celebrations that caught my eye. They also have a handful of computers for both children and adults. Parking is easy off the backside of the building. I can't wait till the seed library returns in February and March for folks to take home and start their summer gardens. So grateful for public library system and can't wait to explore more more in the year ahead!

The sleek Scandinavian design of the exterior had me at "hello". Spoiler alert: the inside is just as beautiful. The space features large wrap around windows, a fireplaces, sleek lines and a dedicated children's and teens section that are clearly spaced off from the adult section of the library. I also appreciated their clean bathrooms and outdoor covered patio overlooking a treeline. The children's section was laid out really well with books displayed in a way that's easier for short kiddos to read the titles and explore what's available. We ended up leaving with a variety of recipe, travel and kid books. I can't believe there weren't more people here. It was a 20 min. drive from downtown but worth every bit of the drive. Can't wait to return!

This location is our current favorite, almost solely for their kids section. You'll find a stack of grocery baskets when you first enter, and we love that. We like to get enough kids books to have at least 2 bedtime stories a night, plus extra for our calming nook. Each kid can grab a basket and so do I. I believe they have plastic bags available to take your collection of books home, but I use reusable totes for the 20-30 books that we end up with. They do a great job of putting a nice selection right up front of books that compliment the season and current events, and that includes children's books. That's the first place I look before we head to the children's section. Not only is the children's section large, it is sectioned off quite nicely, so I don't feel the anxiety of trying to keep their voices low. I feel completely secure in allowing the 3 of us to wander around, independently, collecting books. My girls enjoy the games available to them on the computers and also the interactive area that holds Legos and fun seating. Books are also separated by topics and themes for the younger/learning to read crowd and placed into bins with photos as labels. I absolutely love this and it's helped my 5 and 6 year olds pick out some really great, age appropriate books. There is also a really pretty outdoor patio that you enter thru the children's section, where you could sit and read or study. I would love to check it out when the weather is nicer. This location also has a step stool up at check out, so younger kids can check out their own books. The girls have their own cards and check out the books they've chosen themselves, and they really enjoy the process of checking out and loading up their books on their own. This location is definitely a gem for local youth and their parents.

This local library is delightful! It's medium-sized, as far as libraries go (definitely smaller…read morethan Central Library and smaller than Greenwood), but it packs a lot of stuff in there. There is a decent-sized community room for events, located right up front. The back of the library has 2 private study rooms that you can reserve; each fits around 4 people and includes a dry erase board. Then it has a BOOTH that is very coffee shop style and includes outlets. There are multiple tables and seating places. Around 20 computers set up for the public to use. The selection includes a little of everything. If they don't have something you want, the IPL overall likely has it, and they can do a request to have that item delivered to Southport Library for your pick-up. How cool! Reserving items is easier than it was back in the day. You can do self check-out and it goes by quickly - you can even have the reminder emailed to you! Plus, this area of town is home to many immigrants (Chin refugees from Burma and more) and they have signs in multiple languages. Love the inclusivity. Libraries are wonderful.

Working next to the collaborative spaces was a little distracting because I could hear others' conversations, but other than that it was a great experience.

The library is new, upscale with lot's of book-themed art and fixtures. The children's section has a great selection of colorful and award winning titles. There are study areas upstairs offering a quiet work space. And of course, there is free WiFi throughout out. The librarians are wonderfully helpful and engaging. This week, I took my granddaughter to the library. We read several books by the cozy fireplace in the sunroom area. I also read the daily newspapers. We picked up several of the monthly craft kits available to stimulate creativity of the patrons. My granddaughter also worked on the large mosaic puzzle that changes monthly in the library. Books that are not available at this branch can be ordered from other branches. There is street parking out front. This is a wonderful little library with a lot of interesting activities.

They also have an adult dinner recipe and spice mix each month that you can pick up and shares info about a book to learn more. Such a cool idea. There is a main book area, upstairs private rooms, and a side room that's full of windows and beautiful natural light. It's quiet and peaceful, a great respite in The Village of West Clay neighborhood. We're glad you're here!
