Columbus Library NYPL

I mentioned that I love to read, and the NYPL is such an underused resource – and one that’s unfortunately in danger of going away. You can get almost any book in the world, for free, and they even have e-books and audiobooks now too. Plus, it’s a great community space. Last checkout: 10:04 by Ben Lerner. Loved it.

I'm a bibliophile and I've always enjoyed visiting this cozy NYPL branch, which is now fully reopened!

The library is small, but the book selection is beautifully edited. I can’t wander through the shelves without finding multiple books that I’d like to take home. This is especially true of the children’s section. And the librarians are kind and helpful. On those rare occasions when the library doesn’t have a book, the librarians can procure it within days.
