Paul LeClerc Libraries Quotations

We are inaugurating one of the single most important and beautiful libraries in North America.

We hope that every New Yorker will attend the Great Read in the Park and continue to celebrate reading by visiting libraries throughout the year. New York City is fortunate to have great libraries that make it their mission to put books and information into the hands of New Yorkers and users from around the world. We at the New York Public Library are particularly thrilled that the Great Read is being held in Bryant Park, our most beautiful backyard.
