Work-in at the 42nd Street Library EVERY Saturday! (Started February 22, 2014 and is Now Continuing EVERY Saturday)

Protest work-ins Every Saturday.  (The first was February 22, 2014 and there have already been successive work-ins, March 1, March 8, March 15. . . . . . . )

Here's the drill: All you need to do is come do your work in the Rose Main Reading Room with a www.SaveNYPL.org sticker affixed to your laptop. Protest while you work!

If possible, meet us and get a sticker at 9:45 AM or at 1:00 PM outside the 5th Avenue entrance to the Library between the two lions (5th Avenue at 41st Street).  If you are unable to arrive at either of these times, go to the Rose Main Reading Room and look for a group of people with SaveNYPL stickers on their laptops.

These work-ins are being organized by Matthew Zadrożny, the person in the Humans of New York post which went viral in February.  Please join Matthew and a group of like-minded library lovers to get some work done and help save the 42nd Street Library!

March 18, 2014 Mr. Zadrozny had the following OpEd about the destruction of libraries in The Guardian, “If libraries can't make it here in New York, can they make it anywhere? (I’m the guy eating chicken in the viral photo of the New York Public Library. I’m a library nerd. But all nerds need a library).”
