Nix Library, 1401 S. Carrollton Ave.
Patrons of the star-crossed Nix Library can use the one-room branch on South Carrollton Avenue again.
It reopened Monday (Aug. 22) after drain pipe repairs, after a brief reopening following 17 months of renovations to comply with Americans with Disabilities Act plus repairs to the roof and interior.
The small library offers a wide collection of books, music and movies and has been an important part of the Carrollton neighborhood for almost a century.

Ralph Nix is my Grandfather, I remember going there in the 1960’s with my Grandmother Ruth, in the summertime, to enroll in their reading program. You had to read a total of ten books earning a star for each book.
Fond memories of my childhood.
