A $39 million, three-story Rego Park library will open late 2028, expanding from 7,500 to 18,000 sq ft with modern sustainable design.
"While book borrowing is central to QPL's mission, it represents only one dimension of our work," explained Lisi de Bourbon, a spokesperson for the Queens system. "The growth in library card registrations, and use of e-content, computers and Wi-Fi reflect the growing demand for these services in New York City. Even when a card is not used for traditional borrowing, it provides access to a wide range of resources that advance equity, opportunity, and community connection."
