The library in Logansport is part of the Cass County Public Library system. The building is…read morerelatively modern. The staff is remarkably helpful. I came to the library to learn details about the local courthouse. Scott, in the Reference section of the library, spent a great deal of time helping look up information in files and older local history books. He found most of the information that I needed. We also talked about the history of the library. He pointed me to a timeline on their Web site. Logansport has had a library since 1890. They've had several structures, including a limestone Carnegie funded structure. After a fire destroyed that structure in 1941, a newer structure was built. Renovations and additions over the years have led to the current library. The library has a nice reading room with a fireplace and lovely paintings by Hoosier artists. On the first floor is a children's area with a reading room that was filled with kids. There was a very small play area, but for the most part, books are the primary stars in this library. Lots of natural light enters the building. The reference area, pubic computers, and study areas are upstairs. The staff is friendly, helpful and dedicated. I left with maps and I formation and old photographs. There is dedicated parking lot on the east side on the building.

I've been visiting West Lafayette for many years but never noticed this magnificent fountain until…read moremy visit to the Courthouse in September. The fountain is amazing - my first thought was just "wow". The fountain was designed by Laredo Taft in 1887. The statue honors General Lafayette, the city namesake. His figure stands majestically over the pool below. Panels around the base also honor John Purdue (namesake of Purdue University), an artesian well beneath the fountain, early pioneers of the city, Union solders who fought in the Civil War, and William Digby (founder of Lafayette). The fountain is surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Local business workers sat around the fountain eating lunch or reading in the serene setting and the sounds of the fountain water. There is free street parking about a block away. The fountain and Courthouse are definitely worth a visit.

In 1887, the piece was erected on the site and appears to have undergone some TLC along with the courthouse. The main figure atop the fountain is that of the Marquis de Lafayette who was instrumental in helping the inexperienced and underfunded American military during the Revolutionary War. Below that life sized figure, there are four oval reliefs and below that, an octagonal shape with each of the sides bearing an ornate framing around the names of honorees with ties to the city. Honorees are quite varied and include pioneers, soldiers, John Purdue, and William Digby, the town founder. Earlier versions of the courthouse are also honored. Although the honorees may be somewhat random, the overall beauty of the work is fantastic. Review #1410

I got that dreaded letter in the mail recently: I was being summoned for jury duty! Because I'm a…read moreresident of Hamilton County, I had to report to this particular court house. My experience being called for jury duty was fine. The people who work here are very professional and efficient. The building itself is beautiful. If you do have to serve on a jury and spend some time here, there are lots of restaurant options to choose from. I ended up being dismissed before lunch. Keep in mind that they don't allow you to park outside of the courthouse itself. There's a free parking garage a block away at which jurors are instructed to park. I would add an additional 10 minutes to your trip to find parking and walk to the courthouse. It's not far away, but there's a traffic light that takes a while. Also keep in mind: Before you enter the courthouse, you have to walk through a body scanner and empty your pockets. It's very easy but also kind of a pain, but I guess it's necessary in these strange and unpredictable times.

After the quick security check, the women at the Information Desk explained directions clearly and made it very easy to find. What a pleasant surprise when we walked into the Clerk's Office without a line or even a wait. Asked what I needed, I told her and she didn't bat an eye, roll her eyes or take the deep, loud sigh. She was friendly, professional, personable and efficient!! She continued and less than 5 minutes later I had the Certified License in my hands! Poof! Was that a dream? Wow! We were happily stunned with the entire process. The experience felt like we had a personal friend behind the counter. If you need to get an old Marriage License don't totally dread the process. Hopefully, yours will go as smoothly as ours.

The courthouse in Boone County is a typical Midwestern "county seat". The classical revival building, designed by J. T. Hutton, was constructed 1909-1911 of Bedford limestone and granite. The interior of the building still has its original amazing oak trim and most of the original decor. The dome of the building is composed of beautiful art glass. The primary purpose of the building is to house judicial functions and county services. You can pay taxes, vote or check on property information in the courthouse. The square has been updated nicely over the pass couple years. There are a couple restaurants and a few shops on the square. In the warmer months, part of street will host a local farmers market.

It was not terribly busy yesterday and I was able to take care of my court business fairly quickly and leave. It seemed to be a fairly slow day (which is not always the case). Telephone calls to the courthouse are best made early in the day, around 11 a.m. and NOT at days' end (4:30 p.m. though it can be earlier). Activity in the courthouse picks up around 2 p.m. The phone system for the most part works okay. If you have a direct number, it really helps. Given the amount of people that come to the courthouse I think the employees are helpful especially in giving directions to courtrooms and other administrative departments. I am a retired legal assistant so some of these items are fairly familiar. I think the various Clerk of Cook County webpages have been updated over the years. They can answer some but not all questions but access to a computer and having an inquiring mind concerning the court computer system and what can be done online and what cannot be done would be required to obtain the needed information. There are some items that an attorney or other legal staffperson would need to be involved in. In some occasions it might be necessary to go to the courthouse to pay fines, pull up documents and get answers to questions if needed. Good luck.

Here I am in the jury room, so far the place is not treating me bad and there are no rats visible to rip my nylons (well actually they are Dolce & Gabbana socks in multi color but that's not the point). So I came in the line where men and women are separated and you of course have to take off all items like belts and jewelry. I seriously thought that my pants were about to fall right down to the ground, good thing I have on the new CK's you know, just in case I am discovered to be the next CK model. Of course I would take out Justin Bieber's new campaign because ummm no air brush needed here. But any-who, the court house consist of various buildings but the one I am attached to for the day is clean, brite and quite accommodating. On the jury room they have several sections to hang out in, as I am sure this experience will be a good one, I still hope not to be choose as I do have prior commitments later on in the evening. The vending machines have plenty of sugar products to wire me up to the high heavens, so if chosen, I will never shut my mouth! Parking is beyond ample and if you have to come to a court house, I would assume this one would match the lot of them. So remember, being change, a book, a lap top, an iPad or snacks to get through the day, as this will be a very long but pleasant one I am sure.
