LIBRARY OPEN ON SUNDAYS IN BOROUGH PARK


Recent cuts to New York City's budget led to seven-day-a-week service being cut to six days a week in New York City's three library systems (New York, Brooklyn, and Queens).
 
Weekend service was limited to Saturdays at all Brooklyn branches, including the Kensington, Windsor Terrace, Cortelyou, and Borough Park branches.
 
However, after discussions between Brooklyn Public Library president Linda Johnson and elected officials representing Borough Park, the weekend day that the Borough Park branch is open has been changed from Saturday to Sunday.
 
All other branches are still open on Saturdays and closed on Sundays.
 
The branch is fully accessible.
 
To prevent additional budget cuts to libraries for the upcoming fiscal year, please sign a form addressed to Mayor Adams, City Council Speaker Adams, Council Majority Leader Farías, Committee on Libraries Chair Rivera, Council Finance Chair Brannan, and your City Councilmember.
