Greenpoint Library and Environmental Education Center is a 15,000-square-foot community library and hub for environmental awareness, activism, and education in the Brooklyn Public Library system. Program elements include reading rooms, dry/wet eco-labs, community event space and meeting rooms, staff spaces, and an extensive outdoor space. Landscapes are integrated into the building on three levels – bioswale and rock outcroppings at the street, a reading garden on the second, and a green roof on the third.
This experience is offered during OHNY Weekend as a part of Radical Knowledge: Libraries as Community Catalysts, a series examining how libraries serve as both vibrant learning institutions and centers for their communities, providing physical and virtual spaces to enrich civic life, expand economic opportunity, and improve the quality of place and quality of life for New Yorkers.
Radical Knowledge is produced in partnership with Brooklyn Public Library, New York Public Library, and Queens Public Library.
