But, unfortunately, fines are quite effective at preventing our most vulnerable communities from using our branches, services, and books. That is the antithesis of our mission to make knowledge and opportunity accessible to all, and needed to change. As New York grapples with the inequities laid bare by the pandemic, it is all the more urgent that we ensure the public library is open and freely available to all.</h3> <h4> </h4> <h4>—<strong>Tony Marx</strong>, President, The New York Public Library</h4> <p><br /> <a href="https://www.nypl.org/blog/2021/10/05/nypl-announcement-library-eliminating-fines">Read more about this important change.</a> </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card-grid card-grid--full"> <ul class="card-grid__cards card-grid__cards--full"> <li class="featured-card featured-card--primary-gray featured-card--image-top"> <div class="featured-card__content featured-card__content--primary-gray featured-card__content--image-top"> <h2 class="featured-card__heading" id="featured-card--heading--7285" > <a class="featured-card__heading-link" href="https://www.nypl.org/locations" > Find an NYPL Location </a> </h2> <div class="featured-card__text" > <p>All available libraries across the Bronx, Manhattan, and Staten Island are now open with nearly full service.
