About the event
The [New York Historical](https://www.nyhistory.org/) invites you to the Reading Room of the Patricia D. Klingenstein Library! Even though we are meeting in the museum's library, there will not be books available for you to silently read. **Please bring your own book.** Sometimes the museum has events that can be noisy. If you have trouble reading with noise in the background, you may want to bring headphones. **IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR FINDING THE GROUP INSIDE THE NY HISTORICAL** 1. Enter the building through the Central Park West entrance and go through Admissions, where you will get an entry sticker. 2. You may be asked for a donation but it’s Pay As You Wish so you may pay as much or as little as you like. 3. Once you get the sticker, you may head up the grand staircase opposite Admissions. 4. As soon as you get to the second floor, you'll see the entrance to the Reading Room on the left. We'll have a sign noting the room is reserved for Silent Book Club. Readers are welcome to **hang out in the Museum until closing at 8:00 PM**. **About the library** The Patricia D. Klingenstein Library is one of the oldest, most distinguished research libraries in the United States and a vital center of research into the history of New York and the nation. The Library's historic Reading Room has been a key stop for generations of scholars and researchers.
