                               PAGE 4

                                       The Library is pleased to announce that we have begun work on a new project, the Digital

The New York City Book Awards          Collections Portal, to provide Library members and the public with unprecedented access

                               PAGE 7  to our historic special collections. The Digital Collections Portal will host a powerful digital

                                       database on the Libraryâ€™s website, allowing users to explore digitized archival material from

      Spring Awards and Events         our collection in new and engaging ways. It is made possible by the generous support of an

                               PAGE 8  anonymous donor.

                                       Library members are already familiar with our work to conserve, transcribe, and

                                       digitize our historic early circulation records from 1789 to 1792. We are very proud of this

                                       resource, which documents the literary tastes and reading habits of New Yorkers of the

                                       Founding Era. The current site contains digital images of pages from the original charging

                                       ledgers and transcribed records from the ledgers themselves, showing the books borrowed
