Flushing Library Reopens, Queens Daily Eagle

Queens Borough President Donovan Richards and Councilwoman Sandra Ung joined Queens Public Library President and CEO Dennis Walcott on Monday, April 25, to welcome patrons back to Flushing Library for in-person service after the branch was closed for two years. “This is a great day for the Flushing community,” Ung said. “This library is so much more than a place to check out books. It hosts community events for families, provides a safe place for teens to gather after school and keeps our seniors connected. For the many local residents who have limited English proficiency, the Flushing Library is often where they learn what is going on in their community.”
