The Northside Branch of the Public Library of Cincinnati & Hamilton County is located on the west side of Hamilton Avenue between Chase and Pullan Streets. A parking lot is behind the branch. The branch is served by Metro routes 15X, 17, and 27.

The Cumminsville Branch opened as a modest facility in rooms on the corner of Hoffner and Spring Grove Avenues on June 10, 1879. Funding problems forced the library to close in 1882. In 1904, Northside residents appealed to the Cincinnati Public Library to reopen the branch. Funded by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation, a new building was opened to the public in April of 1908. An extensive renovation and remodeling project begun in August of 1999 temporarily closed the library. In September of 2000, it reopened as the Northside Branch Library.

The Northside Branch is an ADA accessible facility and has a book return.

The Northside Branch meeting room seats 30 people. Visit the meeting room webpage for additional information and a link to the online reservation form.
