Handout Number 3 For July 6, 2014 Brooklyn Community Board 2 Land Use Committee Meeting- Come To The Library Seeking Truth NOT Treasure

Truth Park at the north end of the library where an admonition about TRUTH and TREASURE appear

On the north face of the Tillary Clinton Brooklyn Heights Library (facing the corner park- We like to call it “Truth Park”) we find inscribed this admonition to come to the library to pursue TRUTH not TREASURE:

“All that come here to seek treasure will not take away gold but the seeker after truth and instruction will find that which will enrich the mind and heart”

At the last (5/18) BPL design “Charette”/Charade to sell and shrink the library none of the multitude of architects or BPL representatives at the tables knew of this admonition, or even knew how many feet of book shelf space was at the library for before and after comparisons.
