Kickoff the Summer Reading Program with the College Avenue Library! Join us for Spooky Campfire Stories at 1:00 pm, face painting from 2:00 pm -3:00 pm, as well as snacks, games, and prizes throughout the event.
Established as the Broadway Branch in 1924, the library served the neighborhood from a frame house on E. 42nd Street until 1958 when a 6,500-square-foot facility opened on Broadway Street. This aging and overcrowded building was replaced in August 2000 with the current 16,000-square-foot structure on College Avenue that was renamed the College Avenue Branch.
