    I love all four branches of MPL. Kennedy's meeting room is nice. I love the papyrus font text on the walls.

    I stumbled upon the Carnegie Library while walking around downtown Muncie. I love visiting…read morelibraries when I'm in a new area, so I popped in with alacrity. First: It's oh-so quiet in this library. This is a nice place to just exist in silence. That said, this isn't your regular public library, with story times and such. This is a specialty library, and it's more like a repository for old things: old books, archives, vintage catalogues, genealogy information, local history and things like that. But they also have computers that you can use for free, and free wifi, and printers if you need to print something. I'm not from Indiana, so the ancestry records have nothing to do with me. But I think that's cool that if you grew up in Indiana, or have relatives from this state, that you might be able to find out some interesting information about yourself here. The people who work here look ready to help, but ultimately, they leave you the eff alone, which is nice. I got zero greetings, which is the exact number of greetings I wanted from a small, quiet library.

    Muncie is my hometown, although I left there 12 years or so ago…read more This past weekend, I had to secure some old obituaries for a project I was working on, so made the trek up to Muncie to see if I could find them at the library. Cindy assisted me, and she was professional, kind, and helpful, even though I had NO idea where to start. She's as much an asset to the library as the library is to Muncie. Well done!

    Although there seems to have been some harsh reviews in the past, I found this bookstore to be very…read moresimilar to the competitors that are found in the Indy area (Borders). Very similar line of merchandise: Novels, music, toys, graphic novels, and a cafe/coffee shop. There were plenty of staff on the floor to assist if needed and the condition of the store was clean and well stocked. I didn't have any trouble finding what I was looking for. If you like reading actual books and owning them, then stop by the Muncie Mall if you are in the area. This store is large enough to have its own outside entrance on the east side of the mall.

    Poor Books a Million, how do you hang on?…read more When I first moved to Florida, I shopped at Books a Million because it was almost everywhere and Borders and Barnes & Noble weren't. The trouble was that they never seemed to discount anything and their savings card didn't seem to help, but cost me to have it. It seemed to be more for the Joe Muggs coffee shop inside the store and the trinkets at the cash register. This store is no different from the others. They have the magazines ("news stand") on one wall toward the outside of the store (the restrooms are near there) and Joe Muggs is at the mall entrance. The books and games, etc. are in-between the two. It's a compact store, but probably sufficient given the population and the likelihood that someone will actually buy. While I saw a few people working, no one bothered to say anything. The coffee shop was a lonely place, also, with only two customers. If it was Starbucks, they'd be having knock-down-drag-outs for seats. Nothing out of place for Books a Million. How do they stay in business?
