Tonight, even if you don’t have an I’m-a-”Student” campus library pass, you can peruse till 9pm in the aisles of Brooklyn Public Library’s Central Library, scouting books/VHS/DVDs (three week rental, for FREE) and eyeing H-O-T-T bookworms. Or, haul it over to the branch in your neighborhood, where “interesting” locals take refuge. On many days of the week BPL hosts programs, so check the calendar of events.
If you’re up for something more LIVELY but equally literary (and FREE), Amanda Stern’s Happy Ending Reading Series boasts another line up of all-star authors at 302 Broome. Yes, Happy Ending is a BAR, or (ehem) a Lounge, but there’s hardly the time between authors to elbow trough-side. Still, if you’re palette’s parched, this could be The Ideal Evening for a Shirley Temple. Personal nostalgia over childhood drink + authors reading = the day you started Your Memoirs (PNOCD + AR = TDYSYM; it’s math).
