In October, we marked an important anniversary: our first full year of charging zero late fines. We also welcomed more than 400,000 visitors to the Polonsky Exhibition of The New York Public Library's Treasures, which showcases some of the most extraordinary items from the 56 million in our collections, inspiring and empowering visitors to discover, learn, and create new knowledge. We remain dedicated to the free and open access of information and knowledge—a mission that is directly opposed to current book challenges and bans, and threats of censorship. Knowledge is power. In this time of uncertainty, the Library is on the frontlines of the recovery, while working to build a more equitable, more democratic, and more inclusive future.
