With the time change, the staff is coming in at the same time, but the sun is just coming over the horizon, making for a beautiful morning view.

I am a big fan of the E Washington Street Branch, also a Carnegie Library, designed by Foltz and Parker and constructed between 1909 and 1911.

I love the reading monks.

The Spades Park Branch of the Indianapolis Public Library opened on this day in 1912. Indianapolis had five Carnegie grant libraries, and Spades was one of them. Thanks to Carnegie, there were 164 public libraries built in Indiana. Which library is your favorite to visit?
