Brooklyn Public Library
Listed under Libraries in New York City, United States.
The Brooklyn Public Library is fifth biggest public library in the US. It may not seem like a place for visitors from the outset, but with its collection of more than a million books, magazines and other new and historical publications, you can learn a damn lot about New York here.
It's also worth appreciating as one of America's great Art Deco buildings.
