Silent Writing at NYPL (Schwarzman)

Join us in the LEFT SIDE big reading room at the library with the two lions. We'll be there writing in silence. This is not a structured event, but rather a designated time in which we can find each other here and write in solidarity with each other. Note: The official name of the room is the "Rose Main Reading Room," located on the third floor of Stephen A. Schwarzman Library by Bryant Park, and we are usually on the left side, by seat #226. You'll have to go past the people telling tourists that the area is not open to visitors (unless it happens to be when you enter). Don't be intimidated, just tell them you are there to study. After you pass by them, go through the catalog room, straight to the end, then take a left. The tables have numbers by each seat. Even numbers in the room on the left, odd to the right. There are a series of bag checks - once upon entering the library and once each upon exiting the reading room and library.
