La Library era uno di quei luoghi che desideravo assolutamente vedere durante la mia visita a New York, e ne sono rimasto assolutamente soddisfatto.
Anche se molte sale sono (giustamente) riservate solo a studenti e ricercatori, è proprio l'edificio in sé che vale la pena di visitare.
A volte sembra di perdersi, lungo la serie di scale che salgono e scendono incrociandosi.
I controlli all'ingresso sono rigorosi, simili a quelli dell'aeroporto, ma una volta superati è bello vagare all'interno di questo storico edificio. Noi ci abbiamo passato un'ora e mezza, e ne valeva assolutamente la pena. Da non perdere il piccolo museo al piano terra che racconta la storia della scrittura

We visited the New York Public Library located right next to Bryant park on a weekday evening, half an hour before closing. It is free to enter but do check the closing timings as it changes every day of the week. Bags are checked when you enter and very large bags or suitcases aren't allowed. What a gorgeous building! We loved the Astor hall at the entrance and the McGraw Rotunda. We weren't allowed into the main reading room as it was almost closing time. But we will definitely be back to get a library card and actually read the books. The library also offers free audio tours and has steps and elevators to get to the top floors.

Ein imposantes Gebäude sowohl innen als auch aussen. tolle Bemalungen an Wänden und unter der Decke.
es gibt mehrere einzelne bücherräume, in denen mal lesen kann. Aber sehr viele Touristen, wo ich mir vorstellen kann, für die, die wirklich lesen oder lernen wollen könnte es störend sein.

The main reading room, as we all know, is incredible. That said, it’s crazy how loud it is. It’s as if it was built for vibes over being actually conducive to reading. The floors are tile, and the chairs lack soft padding on the feet. So it’s just this constant screech of wood against tile. Get it together, y’all, and quiet the place down. I asked if I could speak to the head librarian about this issue, but they said that the manager was not available.
