Great little library with a true attention to history. I visited with a friend and got to see some great displays of old works that were wonderfully put together. If you are in the area and want to see their exhibits, I would highly recommend the stop.

The collections at this library are extrodinary. It's not a large library but what it was well worth driving out of my way to see. They had a puzzle display that included ones available to try to solve which kept my 13 year old busy while I explored. The young woman working the desk was very helpful, pointing out things I might like other than just the Gutenburg Bible, which is what I'd come to see. It was a wonderful experience.

My primary experience with the Lilly Library has been through access to its archives of the original Ian Fleming manuscripts covering most of the original James Bond stories, and related materials. The organization of these and the way in which the institution makes them available to patrons is exceptional, dealing with staff always a pleasure. Highly recommended!

A truly hidden gem on campus. What an incredible collection of rare books. A must-see in Bloomington, and it should be on the top of every IU student's bucket list.

A little gem at IU! They house a lot of really awesome, rare items. If you want to look at any books, you will have to wear white gloves (which they provide) and even put the book on this little book holder thing so the spine isn't damaged by opening it too far.... and you cannot check any materials out, though you are welcome to look at them there in the library.

An absolutely amazing experience. Oscars, The Emancipation Proclamation, the Declaration of Independence, the Peter Pan original manuscript, autographs from every single US president, and millions more. A true gem.

Great historical building. More museum than library now. A great place to spend some time while learning more about Bloomington and it's history. Great for kids as well.

I loved the Sherlock Holmes exhibit. It has some pretty remarkable items. BTW it is free :-)

Where else can you see such historical documents, a printing press, and so much more? Very few places allow you the privilege of sight of the treasures this place beholds.
