Mayor Eric Adams has ordered budget cuts for libraries, schools, and social services in the coming fiscal year. New Yorkers should demand a more democratic process — one where they have a say in the city budget’s priorities. https://t.co/ARtW3swBpn

Library services could come under tremendous stress in the face of Mayor Eric Adams’ proposed 2024 city budget. https://t.co/xMmRpezPjj

Why was the 42nd St @nypl going to open late?
One of the guards who fends off wandering tourists to keep the Reading Rm quiet told us: The morning off was needed for the mental health of the staff who had endured an influx of visitors avging 36,000 / day during the holiday season

Hats off to @savenypl, @DefendLibraries, @LibraryLoversNY who fought tirelessly to prevent Mid-Manhattan Library (MML) from being sold to developers and demolished for luxury condos.

Every Carnegie library is a national treasure

[Susan Bernofsky @translationista]

So relieved to hear these beautiful libraries - all gifted to the people of NYC a century ago - will be saved from demolition to make way for high rises as happened e.g. in Brooklyn Heights and across from MoMA.
