March at SPCL

We have an exhibit entitled "Have you met" happening this month in the library filled with information from New York Historical Society's Women and the American Story Curriculum. Stop by and check out our books and offerings the accompany this display and take home an intern-made feminist button to show your support!

Ramadan began on Sunday, March 10 and will continue until the Eid on April 9. Here are a few helpful tips to respect those who will be celebrating.

We have a collection of math books here to help you celebrate the glories of Pi!

In celebration and recognition of St. Patrick's Day, the Irish American Arts Center will host their 12th Annual Book Day this Friday! From their site:

Our wonderful community of volunteers and staff, sponsors and supporters will once again celebrate St. Patrick’s season by helping New Yorkers "get lit"! This year, we celebrate New York writers alongside authors from Ireland and the Irish diaspora. Come find us at one of our pop-up stations across the five boroughs, where we’ll be distributing thousands of free titles of all genres from 8am until the books run out.
