NEW YORK — New York City’s three public library systems expanded their services on Monday as the city continues to reopen.
New Yorkers can now browse the stacks, use public computers and take advantage of in-person reference resources at select branches of the New York Public Library, Brooklyn Public Library and Queens Public Library systems.
Computer use at BPL and NYPL locations are by appointment only, but QPL branches will take walk-ins.
Capacity restrictions are in place, masks are mandatory, and customers should limit visits to 30 minutes.
