As we observe National Native American Heritage Month in November, it’s useful to know where Hamilton County fits into that heritage with the history of the Treaty of St. Mary's of 1818.

Our library branches will soon begin a series of small renovation projects designed to enhance your library experience. These updates focus on improving spaces for families, updating service points for a smoother visit, and adding clear wayfinding signage to help you navigate the buildings more easily.

This thoughtful reflection on the Vietnam War was written by an anonymous veteran guest author from our True Brew book club and is a great reminder of the service and sacrifice of our armed forces for this upcoming Veterans Day.

This November, the Hamilton East Public Library invites you to take part in our interactive book display: “Books We Are Thankful For.” It’s a celebration of the stories that have touched our hearts, sparked our imaginations, or simply made us smile.

With Halloween right around the corner, along with colorful leaves, pumpkin spice, and cozy sweaters all around, spooky season is here! We've put together a list of some upcoming programs to help you celebrate the spirit of autumn, and look below for our list of recommended reads for all ages. Happy Fall!

Another historic local story that went viral involves a man named Eugene Woodmansee from Urbana, Illinois.
