The library is preparing for the future by focusing on improving access and expanding possibilities in the use of indoor and outdoor spaces. When completed, Fishers and Noblesville residents will enjoy more pedestrian-friendly access and gathering spaces, additional parking, improved traffic flow, plus more experiential learning opportunities.
If you have visited or driven by our Fishers and Noblesville libraries lately, you have noticed the initial renovation work required to maintain our buildings into the future and improve access for all. Our libraries will remain open during regular hours throughout the construction. Look below for the most up-to-date info on closures and updates:
The Noblesville library renovation will focus on improved traffic flow and expanded parking, increasing access to green spaces, creating outdoor amenities for all ages plus an updated front façade. We are expanding our Indiana Room with more experiential learning opportunities, exhibits, and improving second-floor access.
In March 2023, we celebrated the reopening of the main library entrance. All visitors may now enter the library through the main lobby doors or through the Children’s entrance, and the temporary side entrance has closed. Along with expanded parking, our Curbside Pickup Service and book drop are still available in the South parking lot.
The Indiana Room has moved down to the Rotary Reading Room on the first floor of the Noblesville Library due to renovations for the Crossroads Discovery Center. Our staff and a limited collection are still here and available!
The Fishers library renovation will focus on more pedestrian-friendly access and gathering spaces, improved traffic flow and expanded parking, integration of the south entrance with the Nickel Plate trail, redesigning the north entrance to become the new main entrance, and expanding the north side parking.
Currently the south lot and entrance is under construction. Fishers Library and Ignite Studio visitors can park in the library’s north or east lots or can find additional parking throughout the Nickel Plate District shown on the map below.
Beginning on August 7, 2023, the east wing (Youth Services) of the Fishers Library will be closed for an extended period of time to begin the next project phase, which will include repainting and recarpeting. Browsing in-person (youth collection), youth computers, and study rooms in Youth Services will be unavailable during this time. Youth programming in Fishers will continue as scheduled on the calendar of events throughout the project. Please park at the east entrance for direct access to meeting rooms if attending library programs.
Access to new Children’s materials, the General collection, the TeenZone, and meeting rooms will remain open throughout the project. During this time, patrons may browse our online collection, place holds for pickup, schedule curbside pickup appointments, or visit the Noblesville Library. Learn more here.
Our construction is planned with care to enhance our residents’ quality of life through innovation, greater accessibility, and discovery that allows all ages to learn and explore. The goals of our library construction projects are as follows:
