Fishers Public Library

The Hamilton East Public Library systems is actually comprised of two fantastic facilities. The first is located in Fishers, while the second is located in Noblesville. Patrons are free to use both facilities. Additionally, membership allows patrons the opportunity to have materials shipped from one to the other rather than making the drive themselves. 

In addition to books, the library also loans items like DVD's, music CD's, books on tape or CD's, magazines, pamphlets, newspapers, CD-ROM's, slide projectors, telecaptioning devices, telecommunications devices, and Polaroid cameras. For a current list of what is available and checkout periods, click here.

Not only does the Fishers library have a plethora of books on hand, but the library staff is able to locate materials not currently owned. The staff will happily locate any of the following materials:

• Books
• Photocopies of magazine articles
• Dissertations and theses
• Books on audiotape
• Nonfiction videotapes
• Microfilm

There is a nominal fee for this service which covers the cost of handling and transportation. Library members are limited to 5 active requests at any given time. These interlibrary loans typically take 2-3 weeks to arrive. However, this time frame and limit does not apply to transferring materials in-between the Noblesville and Fishers libraries.

However, the library has a lot more to offer than just material rental.  There are a ton of activities, classes and programs for everyone to enjoy.
