I absolutely love this library. Stopped in today to get a library card, the gentleman was extremely helpful and courteous. Gave me some great tips as well. Checked out a few books, computers located throughout to help you search for books. Books were where they were supposed to be. Clean and quiet.

Just absolutely lovely. Allow me to ramble: Libraries stand tall for the public good, ultimate wellsprings and preservers of the right of all people to knowledge freely shared, developed, and enjoyed. It's wonderful that Indy has a place that aspires to match this spiritual truth to a physical, architectural reality.I would haunt this place as a ghost if I could.

Today was my first time in this library in quite some time. I forgot how awesome and beautiful it is inside. I needed to use a computer to print up some forms that were attached to an email, and Michael from the information desk was very friendly, courteous, professional and knowledgable on how to get me what I needed. I was in and out in no time at all. Thank you, Michael! You rock!! ??

I like this place. The exterior and interior of the building is excellent. Staff is very nice all the time. They have 5th floors to help you access to almost the books you need

Staff made me uncomfortable for sitting in an open reading area in the graphic novels area. Apparently comics are for teenagers and I felt unwelcome to read my selections in the common reading area where there was nobody around. Nice building, but I will not visit this branch anymore.

We were here for a wedding. Excellent venue! The air conditioning was very strong and quite cold!

How could anyone not give this place a 5 star review is beyond me. I would have felt cheated had I not explored downtown Indianapolis and not have made this a stop. From the impressive architecture and history of the old part of the library, to the new modern contemporary of the new library, this place is nothing short of amazing. We took the time to explore all the floors and they have an abundance of information at your fingertips. Go in, enjoy, explore, and learn.

The best public library I have been to yet! It is clean, quiet, and modern. They even have an art exhibit when you enter. From finding a quiet study/work spot to attending events throughout the year (knitting, book clubs, carving workshop) - they have something for everyone! My favorite is their Adult Summer Reading Program. You can win hotel stays and other prizes just for reading!

The Indianapolis Public Library exceeded my expectations in every way. The comfort of the space, combined with the well-regulated temperature, made it a joy to spend time there. The library's diverse range of services, from books to printers to DVDs, catered to a wide array of needs. I was particularly impressed by the quiet floors, which allowed for peaceful and focused study or reading sessions. The employees were not only respectful but also incredibly helpful, providing assistance whenever needed. To top it all off, the library boasted a beautiful view, adding a touch of serenity to the overall experience.

It was a pleasant surprise on our walk through the city. The architecture inside was beautiful. The views from the top floor were excellent. And they seemed to have some fun programming. This would be my library for sure if I lived in Indy.

The library needs cleaner elevators, a coffee shop, and better visitors who attract better business, donations and events. So far when I walk in I find homeless men and women of all age groups. The furniture is starting to stench.

This is a 5-star library for me. The inside feels like one is at the airport. They are very welcoming. It is fairly quiet, even the non-quiet zone floors.

There's just so much awesomeness going on through the library system. Go check it out. You will be pleasantly surprised at how it is so much more than just a place for books. The downtown branch has a special collections room on the top floor that is temperature controlled, only Librarians with white gloves can handle the materials. Random, cool, booklovers dream room. ✨️
