We live on this side of town and have visited all of the ones close to downtown and the Eastside—this is my new favorite. The librarians and employees were super kind and helpful—both in-person and by phone when I called. It was quiet and clean and the layout was great for kids. They get their own area where you don’t feel like you’re disturbing others if they talk in a regular volume. The book display was great and I love all the big windows and natural light. Ample seating for adults and kids alike. And for what it’s worth the location doesn’t bother me. All libraries on this side of town can attract sketchy people but this one actually felt safer than some others. I’m glad there’s a library there!

Beautiful and spacious library w/ tons of books, DVDs and other amenities such as public access computers, free Wi-Fi, as well as electrical outlets for charging mobile devices and friendly + helpful librarians. If you're looking for a good book, a movie to watch, or just want to have some free time to be by yourself and have quietness this is the place to be. I definitely recommend visiting this branch a time, or two. Way to go #IndyPL!

This right in the hood. I've lived here 10+ years. This corner of 25th & Sherman is very risky So lock your cars or watch your belongings. The library helped the area feel and look better. once you actually go in the library it's clean and very quiet. Feels like a safe place to be. I recommend this place. The staff is always friendly. The old lady on the front desk is my favorite staff member. Very kind.

  • Britt Loves

Brought my kiddos to pet the animals today and for one the lady was so rude and rushed us through the process literally 4 mins with 2 toddlers . She even went as far as pushing my child’s hand off the animal and telling her to move along . Absolutely disgusting and would not recommend. She was angry , unfriendly and impatient!!!!! 0/10
