History: Bridging the neighborhoods of Yorkville and East Harlem, the 96th Street Branch has been a vital center of information, learning and recreation to a diverse community since it opened in
September
1905.
One
of
the
65
libraries
built
with
funds
donated
to
New
York
City
by
Andrew
Carnegie,
the
library
was
designed
by
the
noted
architectural
firm
of
Babb,
Cook
and
Willard.
Both
beautiful
and
functional,
the
interior
is
distinguished
by
tall
arched
windows,
lofty
ceilings,
wide
staircases,
and
dark
oak
bookshelves.
A
renovation
in
1991
considerably
expanded
the
space
available
to
the
public
and
modernized
the
building,
while
retaining
its
original
architectural
beauty.
The
branch
contains
an
adult
reading
room,
a
children's
room
with
a
separate
space
for
story
hours
an
expanded
reference
center
a
conference
room
and
an
auditorium
with
a
seating
capacity
of
50.
