Curated Conversations for Curious Minds: Composting 101

Important Update Regarding Meeting Usage During Library Renovation

During 2026, we will be undergoing a renovation to better serve the people of Dearborn County. 

During Phase 2 of the renovation access to Youth Services, Genealogy and the Innov812 Workshop will only be available via the High Street entrance.You will still be able to use the Ewbank Meeting Room during Phase 2, but our procedures for using the room have been modified:

  • Please enter the library via the High St. entrance. This entrance provides access to the Ewbank Meeting Room, Youth Services, Genealogy, and the Innov812 Workshop only. To access other areas of the library, you must use the Parking Lot entrance.
  • Once inside, please check in with the Youth Services Department so we can give you the clipboard and key to the room.
  • If you need any assistance at any time during your meeting, please call 812-537-2775 Ext. 1125 and a staff member will come to help.
  • When your meeting has finished, please check out with the Youth Services Department where you can return the clipboard and key.

We are excited to share our upgraded spaces with you once renovations are complete. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve your library.
