Shortened Saturday Hours at the Indiana State Library

Effective 1 September 2015, the Indiana State Library will be open from 10:00am - 4:00pm on Saturdays. Previously, the Saturday hours had been from 8:00am - 4:00pm.

The decision to change Saturday hours was made to align with other state agencies in the downtown Indianapolis area.

"The new Saturday hours will align with the Indiana Statehouse and the Indiana State Museum," said State Librarian Jacob Speer. "This alleviates any confusion to anyone visiting the downtown historic sites and focuses the hours we are open during the times when we have our most customers."

The Indiana State Library is located at 315 W. Ohio St., Indianapolis. The hours are:

• Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday: 8:00am - 4:30pm
• Thursday: 8:00am - 7:00pm (Manuscripts and Rare Books closes at 4:30pm)
• Saturday (until 1 September 2015): 8:00am - 4:00pm
• Saturday (after 1 September 2015): 10:00am - 4:00pm
