Renovation Gallery

The Main Library at East 222nd Street is officially closed! Contractors have installed a gate around the property as renovation work begins. Banners have also been placed to help inform the public. Pictured are Safety Manager Ben Fagan and Maintenance Supervisor David Fasula.

Our temporary library location, EPL at 185th, is now open to the public. The circulation desk is on the right, with children and teen shelving to the left. The adult collection and public computers are located toward the back of the space.

At this location, patrons can enjoy many of their favorite materials. The magazine, audiobook, and large print sections are featured here.
