Stop by and say hello to Jackie Nytes, the CEO of The Indianapolis Public Library!
Jackie is stopping by every Library branch throughout the month of May, and she wants to hear from patrons and community members to see how we are doing, how we can better serve you, and share our new strategic plan. Stop by for an informal chat, and check out a book or movie while you are there!
The Spades Park Branch was built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation and opened in 1912, six months after the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the East Washington Branch. The 7,500-square-foot branch underwent a $610,000 renovation in 1987 and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012.
