Thank you. It's my pleasure to share whatever I can! And I'm learning, too.

The Rare Books & Manuscripts Division sounds big, but it's only one room. A
really nice room, but just one! Go to the 3rd floor of the NYPL and follow the
signs.

But first, you'll need to stop in at the office right by the stairs on the 3rd
floor to get a pass.

Once you're in the RB&MD, head straight for the librarians' desk. A librarian
will help you.

The librarians can help you at the NYG&BS, too. It's not a large space either.

Best,

Leslie
