This is the first time that Ottendorfer has been open since March 2020... and as of today, this location — as well the rest of the NYPL branches, including Tompkins Square — is offering nearly full service: general library use and seating, unlimited browsing, computer access and more. In-person programming and classes will return in the coming months. (Tompkins Square had been open just for grab-and-go service. Hamilton Fish Park Library on East Houston remains closed for renovations.)
Ottendorfer will also be featuring a new series of paintings from East Village-based artist, educator (and parent) EiLeen Doster that celebrates summer in the city.
Hours: Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Masks are required for patrons at all NYPL branches.

The facade on the red brick buildings is beautiful - compared to new development.
Great library - nice staff and ample areas to read and relax
Woohoo! I missed you, Ottendorfer.
It also ,besides the books , has a good public bathroom that is much nicer than the Park. At points in my life I used this library a lot and not just for the bathroom. Glad , especially for the growing houseless population , it is back open.
That's some amazing news
YAY! My fave library! Nice to have some good news.
So happy! I love this library!
