Important Update Regarding Meeting Usage During Library Renovation

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

Due to the renovation, access to the Youth Services Department will be closed to the public during January and February. You will still be able to use the Ewbank Meeting Room throughout this closure, but our procedures for using the room have been modified:

  • Please enter the library via the High St. entrance. This entrance provides direct access to the Ewbank Meeting Room only. To access other areas of the library, you must use the Mary St. or Parking Lot entrances.
  • Once inside, please call our Adult Services Department at 812-537-2775 Ext. 1125. Let us know that you have arrived and provide your group's name. A staff member will come to unlock the room for your group.
  • 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 call 812-537-2775 Ext. 1125 again to let us know. Please leave your clipboard in the room. A staff member will come to lock the room and collect the clipboard. There is no need to wait for us.

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.

Program Description

Join us for a delightful community event this May - a free Plant and Seed Swap! Bring your surplus plants, seeds, and gardening tools to exchange with fellow green thumbs. 

Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, this is the perfect opportunity to diversify your garden and connect with like-minded individuals. From colorful flowers to delicious herbs, there's something for everyone. 

Come share your love for gardening and take home new treasures to nurture and grow. Don't miss out on this chance to cultivate friendships and a thriving garden! Drop off plants and/or seeds Thursday, May 8, at North Dearborn; Friday, May 9, at Lawrenceburg Main Library or 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Saturday, May 10, at North Dearborn or Lawrenceburg.

There will be a limited amount of items available without a swap required.

Make sure to pick up a free pollinator seed ball take and make kit while you are at the library. Supplies are limited. Or register for the salad in a jar program (at Lawrenceburg only) before spots fill up!
