Opened on February 1, 1941, the Central Library resembles an open book, its spine on Grand Army Plaza and the building's two wings opening like pages onto Eastern Parkway and Flatbush Avenue.
Free internet access is offered throughout the building.
BPL's Kidsmobile is a children's library-on-wheels with over 2,000 books and special programs visiting Brooklyn neighborhoods. For additional information, call 718.253.4567.
