The central stacks in the Humanities and Social Sciences section of the the 42nd Street New York City Public Library are closed while the library works on a project related to the façade restoration. 65% of the General Research Material is not available, including the Milstein Division of U.S. History, Local History & Genealogy.

Thank you, Dick! I would be so disappointed/frustrated if I was going to NY from here in Oregon to work on my tree at this time. I appreciate you and your newsletter!

Am I glad I spent a couple of days there last January instead of planning it for this January. I'm grateful it is getting the attention it deserves but impatient for it to be done so I can return.
