This New York treasure, boasting one of the world's most important collections of original manuscripts, rare books and bindings, master drawings, and personal writings has reopened after 2 years of extensive renovations. Those renovations include a welcoming entrance on Madison Avenue; new and renovated galleries, so that more of the library's holdings can be exhibited; a modern auditorium; and a new Reading Room with greater capacity and electronic resources and expanded space for collections storage. Some of the Library's recent exhibitions include one on the life of Bob Dylan through music, letters, and memorabilia and an exhibit on illustrator, Saul Steinberg. You can lunch in the intimate Morgan Dining Room as if you were dining in JP's own quarters.
