I actually used to enjoy traveling to Grand Army Plaza.

I don't know when it occurred, perhaps it was when they installed a mini-Starbucks in the lobby, but for some reason, I eventually lost my enthusiasm for browsing through its book collection.

I started utilizing the main branch of the New York system-in midtown-when I was matriculating at Brooklyn College.

Surprisingly, I think that BC's recently constructed library probably has the most comprehensive, voluminous collection out of all the branches-at least, the ones that I've been to-in NYC.

There's a Starbucks in GAP???? YUCK....that totally desicrates that magnificent structure.

I never used the main branch in mid-town until AFTER I left Brooklyn College and was going to technical school in mid-town.

I don't care to relate the date of the last time I was on the BC campus, so can't comment upon any recent changes there.
