The Indiana State Library: Open for Exploration

The Indiana State Library was established in 1825 to provide library services to Indiana’s state governmental officials and employees. Since that time, the responsibilities of the State Library have expanded to provide services to all citizens of Indiana. Just as the Library of Congress serves as the historical repository for our nation, the State Library is responsible for collecting and preserving all types of information and data about the state of Indiana.  

Everyone is welcome to visit the State Library! Our professional staff is available to assist with research questions, offer expertise on a variety of subject matters including genealogy, and provide general guidance and information about materials in the Library’s collections.
