Tates Creek Branch - Small Meeting Room

Let's discuss the non-fiction title: Empress of the Nile : the Daredevil Archaeologist Who Saved Egypt's Ancient Temples From Destruction by Lynne Olson. Olson, who has written extensively about WWII,  spotlights a pioneering French female Egyptologist.

Located on the second floor of the Eastside Branch, the Makerspace is a collaborative workspace for making, learning, exploring, and sharing. Through the intersections of technology, science, art, and culture, the space encourages entrepreneurship, personal growth, and artistic expression.

Celebrate Lexington, Kentucky’s 250th anniversary all year long. Join us for programs, galleries, podcasts, and more highlighting our city’s history, heritage, and legacy.

All the Library Can Be

The library is essential to a thriving community, ensuring equitable access to information, education, and technology for all. We raise funds to support Lexington Public Library programs, services, and special projects that go beyond what public dollars alone can support.
