Fossils can be found in our own backyards! Learn how to mine and safely hunt for fossils and geodes.
Millions of years ago, Indiana was home to ancient creatures and plants that we no longer see today. They have left clues to their existence in the rocks and rivers in our area – ACPL will help you to find these lost treasures! This program teaches how to search for and carefully excavate fossils and gemstones and how to identify common types.
Summer SPARK brings amazing events, creative programming, and fantastic prizes to everyone! Get started at www.acpl.info/spark. Summer SPARK is generously funded by the Foellinger Foundation, Friends of the Allen County Public Library and the Allen County Public Library Foundation.

Situated on the edge of a busy city neighborhood and within easy driving distance of farms and country-dwellers, Hessen Cassel Branch has been a lifeline for the community since its doors opened in 1972. The library serves as a meeting place for customers of all ages, and is heavily used after school. Hessen Cassel Branch intentionally supports the developmental needs of customers of all ages. From wooden blocks, puppets, and play clothes for children; to classes on art techniques, budgeting, and Allen County history; to an ever-changing collection of print, AV, and electronic materials; we serve a dynamic neighborhood that is rich in cultural and ethnic diversity.
