Know the Past, Find the Future: The New York Public Library at 100 by Caro Llewellyn, Beowulf Sheehan
3.0
The centennial was in 2011. In honor of that and Penguin Books' 65th Anniversary, we've been given a collection of 100 notable figures who talk about what items mean the most from the many collections at the library. There is much more than just books at the New York Public Library.
This is a great glimpse into the many collections contained at the Library. My own love affair with the MYPL started very early. Between the guardian lions and the feeling when you step inside, it was a favorite place to visit whenever my New York relatives would take me to the City. When I became old enough to go on my own, I always took time to visit what was my favorite place downtown. 3.5 out of 5.
