The mission of the New York Library Club is to advance the interests of libraries and librarianship in Greater New York and vicinity. It distinguishes itself as the only New York library organization representing a truly diverse group of members.
The Club plays an active role as a network of area librarians and professionals from related fields. It awards an annual scholarship to a library and information science graduate student in a local school’s program. Club events are held in various venues, bringing together members and colleagues to showcase the variety and unique characteristics of the libraries our city holds.
