Fishers Library

This has to be one of the libraries around. Clean and open space. You can bring drinks and food into it. Large study rooms and a staff that is not like any other. Today one staff member asked an elderly lady who need needed help if she could help. Not only did she help but went and pulled the material off the shelves for her. This is an awesome place and shows what Hoosier hospitality is all about.

I really like this library — it’s not too big or too small. My biggest complaint is that their website is behind the times. Many things you can do online with other libraries, you can’t do online through this library’s site.

Been going to the library for 13+ years to tutor. Not much of a reader or movie watcher, but have always liked the «free» services when I’ve used them. Great resource for the community!

We reserved a book. When the book became available, no phone call, no email from this library. Next time we went to check out items, we found we had a fine for not picking up the reserved book. We would have picked it up had we known it was available,

My family and I are frequent patrons of this library and I’m very appreciative of the positive changes that have taken place in the past year or two. For example, DVDs used to have $ 1.00/day fine and couldn’t be renewed online. They have since changed that.
The children’s department is very nice. The BookMyne app for finding books, placing holds, and renewing material is very good as well.
Two years ago I would have given the library 3 stars, but there are exciting things happening here. Programming, policies, and more have improved tremendously.

There is absolutely every book you can possibly imagine here at the Fishers Public Library. From the endless children’s books to the intriguing adult books, this place has a lot to do. Over the summer, they have a program where you can win prizes according to how many books you have read. It is great fun to see how many books you can read between you and your family. If you are not a bookworm like I am, there is still plenty of things you can read and watch. They have movies, music, and magazines; the three Ms that a girl loves. They have great librarians who can help you find any book if you get a little lost ;-) This Library also allows tutoring opportunities in some little rooms that are see through. Not the most private place, but it blocks off some extra noise to make a student feel comfortable. Overall, I’d say that The Fishers Public Library is a fun place for a good (or great) book to read either by yourself, or with your family.

I love this library. The kids section is great. With computers, toys, and games so the little ones can play. They have story times for all ages. Events are held in the conference rooms. Especially during Halloween there is a big celebration for the entire family. This year was even better than last with more games and activities for the family including trick or treating in various parts of the library. There is a huge selection of DVD ‘s for adults as well as for the children.

Fishers town management does it again! First of all, the library is closed by 5:30 pm fri-​sunday and is only open from 1:30 on Sunday. What kind if hours are those? I used to work in a library, so I know it can get dead on weekends. But some folk would like to spend some time in the library when they are not too exhausted after work. But hey, we gotta make sure the fishers’ budget it balanced and all. They have to make sure they can pay for private business being subsidized by the town by housing them in the library basement.

The Fisher’s library is so big. And I love that it does not smell musty or old like some other libraries do. It’s always clean and has great open space. They have a nice children’s section with a few computers for kids to play on and a section for kids to play with a variety of toys and plenty of seating for parents/​nannies.
One of my favorite things about this library is that there are so many different places to sit. It’s very inviting to sit with your own laptop or smartphone and do some work or check emails. Or pull a book off the shelf and enjoy. Free wifi is great too.
I also love that I can put things on hold through their website. And I get sent an email when my hold item is available and a two day reminder when my item is due back. So helpful! It’s great to see what the library offers online and since this is a Hamilton Library, they share their items with the Noblesville library and vice versa.
The library also has great evening hours during the week, and a drive through drop box. I’ve found the staff to be pleasant and kind.

This is not my favorite library. The dvd section is very difficult to navigate because it is all alphabetized instead of put into order based on genre. Also, the service is lacking. I’m not sure why but rarely to the people behind the counter smile at you. I haven’t asked for help for anything so maybe the reference desk is different but at least the checkout could use a little boost of friendliness.

What can I say… I’m a fan of the Fishers Library (Hamilton County Public Library Fishers Branch), libraries in general actually. They obviously have books, and a good selection at that. However, this location has a great DVD selection as well as some nice documentaries in the nonfiction stacks. Also, the bathrooms are always clean, well, the men’s bathroom anyway (sorry ladies). Most of the staff is very helpful and nice… there is this one lady that works the check out for fines and other money related problems that is well, lets just say I’m not sure she has even heard of customer service. I could go into greater detail but hey, I am here quite often and would hate for random «fines» to start appearing on my account. I’ve seen Seinfeld! I kid I kid.
Anyway, great library and best of all it’s FREE!

I’m giving the middle of the line review on this because of poor service. If you’re just visiting and do all that you’re told, you’re probably not going to care about my review. I use to be one of those library users, until they claimed I glued some book pages together. That got me going…
First, I LOVE books. Mine, yours, the library’s, the bookstore’s. I totally respect books. I would never make pages work inappropriately. Next, if I happened to accidentally make some such horror occur, I would totally own up to it. Fishers Library put me on probation for weeks! while I tried tracking down the «right» person to speak with about said damaged book and my account.
When I finally got to the right guy, he acted like I was lying. I am still a bit worked up about this whole affair, and months have gone by. It was reignited today when they claimed I have CDs out that I don’t. When I called the number, that they gave to me in the email, to say I did in fact turn in those CDs, that number sent me to another number. Oh man, that’s a no no.
So while I love the library and love the fact that everyone has access to go anywhere their book/​DVD/​CD of choice takes them, this particular library could use some love on customer service and internal processes.

Did you know you can borrow DVDs here for free? Recent releases too, not just old documentaries. Who knew?!
If they have the TV show you’re looking for on DVD, this is perfect. I borrowed all 5 seasons of The Wire over the course of a few weeks. Saved me lots of money from either buying or renting.
Oh yeah, they have books too.
