WELCOME TO

The New York Public Library!

From the President It’s certainly an exciting time at the Library. If you don’t already know about borrowing Library e-books, we hope you'll download SimplyE, our just-released e-reader, which makes it easier than ever to explore the more than 300,000 free e-books available to all NYPL cardholders (p. 26). Fall is also a great time to check out our newest location, 53rd Street Library, which opened in Midtown and features an award-winning design, three floors of books for all ages, and state-of-the-art program spaces (p. 27). At the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, don’t miss the return of Winnie-the-Pooh, our Alexander Hamilton exhibition (p. 14), and an open house in October marking the reopening of the Rose Main Reading Room (p. 6). This season, we're also celebrating the completion of the Milstein Research Stacks beneath Bryant Park, which increases onsite storage for the millions of items in our renowned collections. Read on for more exciting programs and exhibitions across our 92 locations. We look forward to seeing you at the Library.

CURRENT MAJOR PROJECTS

The New York Public Library

Schomburg Center

Building for You

Following a major renovation completed in 2007, the Schomburg Center is now undergoing an additional $20 million improvement project featuring an updated facade, auditorium, gift shop, a new gallery space, and several new reading rooms.

For more than a century, NYPL’s branches have made neighborhoods stronger. In the past 10 years, we have invested more than $250 million in capital improvements systemwide with even more currently underway.

Woodlawn Heights This $5.3 million project will nearly double the size of the current Woodlawn Heights Library—the new branch will be approximately 4,000 square feet. Currently in the design phase, construction is slated to start in fall 2017. While the branch is closed for construction, the Library will provide a temporary site for patrons.

JUST OPENED

53rd Street Library This three-story library, which is now one of NYPL’s largest branches, opened in June. Just steps away from The Museum of Modern Art, the 53rd Street branch boasts an award-winning design and offers a rich variety of public reading and meeting spaces, including a children’s room, teen area, state-of-the-art computers, and more.

Woodstock This 100-year-old branch is undergoing an interior renovation that will double its programming space, increase the number of computers, expand the children’s area, and create a new young adult reading room, plus a new elevator and more restrooms. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

Charleston The New York Public Library is building a new 10,000square-foot branch for the Rossville/Charleston community of Staten Island. The new library will offer an adult reading room with 12 computer stations, a 1,500-square-foot children’s space, a 1,300-square-foot enclosed teen reading room, an 850-square-foot community room, and two 425-square-foot program rooms. Capital projects at The New York Public Library are made possible by the generous support of elected officials at the city, state, and federal levels. For more information on funding for specific projects, visit: nypl.org/capitalprojects

HOLIDAY CLOSINGS Please note: All locations will be closed Sept. 3–5, Oct. 10, November 11, Nov. 24, and Dec. 25–26, 2016. BRONX
