I
t is my honor to welcome you, as the new Chairman of the Board of Trustees of The New
York Public Library, to this review of the Library’s past year, a particularly memorable one
in recent Library history due to the celebrations surrounding the 100th anniversary of the
Library’s Stephen A. Schwarzman Building at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. The Centennial
of our monumental Beaux-Arts landmark stands out as a pivotal moment in a year of notable
accomplishments, as the Library paid homage to its past while looking forward to the next hundred
years of service to the incredibly diverse communities that depend on us.

This has been a year of many achievements, but also of significant change. In June, the Library
bid adieu to Dr. Paul LeClerc, welcoming its new President, Dr. Anthony Marx, who joined us last
summer after serving as the head of Amherst College for eight years. Paul’s retirement marked the
end of 17 years of distinguished leadership, during which he helped steer NYPL into the digital age
while bringing important collections to the Library, including the papers and archives of Arthur
Schlesinger Jr., Lillian Gish, John Cage, Malcolm X, Jack Kerouac, Jerome Robbins, The New York
Times Company, and the Yaddo artists colony.

The Library also gratefully acknowledges the extraordinary work of my predecessor, Catherine
Marron, dedicated member of the Library’s Board since 1993 and Chairman from 2004 to 2011.
During her tenure, Catie led the Library to record levels of use and accessibility, expanding hours
of library service and greatly enhancing NYPL’s presence in communities throughout the Bronx,
Manhattan, and Staten Island. Under her watch, five new libraries were built, including the Bronx
Library Center, which opened in 2006 and is the largest library in the borough. In addition, Catie
strengthened the Library’s finances. She led an $18 million post-9/11 emergency campaign, helped
steer the course for the Library’s plans to transform the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, and
oversaw the “Creating the Library for the Future” $1.2 billion capital campaign. Most remarkably,
during Catie’s tenure as Chairman, the Library’s endowment increased by almost 70 percent.
The unstinting efforts of Paul LeClerc and Catie Marron, and many others like them, have helped
to bring the Library to a tremendously exciting moment in its history, a time of transition that
nevertheless builds on the brilliant accomplishments of its past. One of the most enduring
emblems of our immensely successful Centennial Year is the Schwarzman Building’s magnificent
facade, returned to its original beauty and grandeur following a historic three-year restoration.
Carrère & Hastings’s masterpiece sparkles as brilliantly as it did when the “People’s Palace” first
opened its doors to an astonished public, on May 23, 1911. As demonstrated by the record-breaking
Centennial exhibition, the Library’s collections have inspired people of all ages for more than 100
years; and our curators and librarians—deeply committed to the philosophy that all knowledge
is worth preserving for future generations—never stop collecting. This year alone, notable
acquisitions by the research libraries include the papers of Maya Angelou and Timothy Leary, as
well as the Mikhail Baryshnikov Archive, this last a treasure trove of papers, photographs, and
videotapes documenting the great dancer’s ballet career, solo and commercial projects, and White
Oak Dance Project.

In his letter, Tony Marx will discuss other notable highlights of the past year and outline the
Library’s goals and challenges as we look to our next century of serving New York City and beyond.
For my part, two recent achievements in particular underline the vital role that The New York
Public Library plays in neighborhoods across the city.
Last year the Library was ultimately successful in getting most of the proposed budget cuts restored,
an accomplishment we should all be very proud of. However, this year, we are confronted with the
harshest cut to The New York Public Library in its history—a proposed $43 million reduction that,
unless reversed, will drastically affect the essential services and materials we are able to provide our
patrons. I am confident that, working closely with elected officials and through careful planning
and thoughtful action, The New York Public Library will overcome this latest challenge, ensuring
that New Yorkers can continue to turn to their neighborhood libraries and the research libraries for
the support and services they need—and deserve.
On June 28, 2011, NYPL opened a brand-new Kingsbridge Library. At a time when other library
systems have been forced to cut services or shutter branches, we continue investing in New York
City’s neighborhoods. The new glass-paneled, 12,625-square-foot Kingsbridge branch is nearly twice
as large as its former location, and features many more computers, two vibrant community rooms,
an outdoor garden, and separate children’s and teen areas. The $17.7 million state-of-the-art building
also boasts NYPL’s first green roof, which catches and reuses a percentage of rainwater that would
normally be lost to the city’s sewer system. Since its opening last June, the new Kingsbridge has
welcomed nearly three times more patrons, particularly young families and other first-time library
users, who are drawn in by the branch’s innovative services and the wealth of programs for all ages.

On a more challenging front, last year brought the largest proposed budget cuts in NYPL’s history.
Fortunately, those cuts were almost completely restored thanks to unprecedented support from
NYPL’s patrons and local elected officials. The proposed $40 million cut would have decimated
hours, resources, and staff across NYPL’s 91 locations, prompting New Yorkers to raise their voices
to help the Library maintain its crucial services. As part of NYPL’s “Keep Libraries Open” campaign,
more than 136,000 loyal Library users wrote letters to their elected officials and donated $70,000
online. Thanks to this collaborative effort—and the support of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, City
Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn, and members of the City Council—the final cuts resulted
in only a few changes to Library hours and staffing levels. We thank everyone for their generosity,
which has allowed NYPL to keep all of its branches open at least six days a week, enabling us to
better serve our millions of patrons.
As the Library looks ahead to its next 100 years, all of our many supporters—from elected officials
to private donors, foundations, and corporations—deserve the Library’s grateful thanks for their
financial support and unswerving loyalty. Especially in these challenging times, our valued donors
play key roles in every aspect of the life of the Library. Their munificence enables us, for example,
to sustain the absolute quality of our world-class research collections, which draw scholars, writers,
researchers, and artists from around the world. Still, as a member of the Library’s Board since 2001,
I know first hand that perhaps no group loves The New York Public Library more than its Board
of Trustees. It is therefore my special pleasure to welcome the Library’s newest Trustee, Richard L.
Plepler, the co-president of Home Box Office, Inc., at the same time that I personally pay tribute to
each member of the Library’s Board. I am honored to serve the Library’s mission alongside a group
of such extraordinary caretakers and dedicated, tireless advocates.

Letter from the President

raditionally, annual reports are retrospective. But this year, my first since assuming the
presidency of The New York Public Library, on July 1, 2011, I would like to begin my review
of the past year with a look at some exciting first steps we have just taken to realize an
inspiring future for the Library.

From ESOL classes to scholarly lectures, from hands-on computer tutorials to the 2011 Anti-Prom
that lit up the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building and filled it with young people from across the
city, our libraries are constantly buzzing “homes away from home” for our full range of patrons,
including children and their families, seniors, entrepreneurs, writers and researchers, and
dreamers of all stripes. No doubt the economic downturn has played a part, but our libraries have
never been livelier—or more needed. This year, more than 43,000 classes and programs were held
at NYPL, and we welcomed more than 15 million visits to our neighborhood libraries alone. In
addition, the four research centers saw nearly 2.5 million through the door.
Libraries do and should change lives, serving not only as much-needed providers of books and
services but also as dynamic, vibrant community hubs where creativity and ideas are born and
then nurtured. To that end, the Library’s Board of Trustees recently approved a sweeping set of
systemwide initiatives that would revitalize our branches through greatly enhanced programming
efforts and major capital improvements. This includes the proposed transformation of the
Stephen A. Schwarzman Building at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street into the nation’s largest
combined circulating and research library. Improvements are planned throughout the building,
but one especially exciting change involves the creation of a new scholars and writers center to
accommodate at least 400 writers (more than double the current number), with our Cullman
Center remaining the crown jewel. Our vision for the 42nd Street library would symbolize
the rebirth of libraries throughout the system as engines of democracy, portals to growth and
fulfillment for all of our citizens, from students and scholars to job seekers and new immigrants.
Nothing perhaps better symbolizes the centrality of The New York Public Library to the life of
the city—and the nation—as our Centennial Year of 2011, which commemorated the opening of
NYPL’s iconic 42nd Street building, on May 23, 1911. Our Centennial exhibition, Celebrating 100
Years, drew more than 650,000 visitors to the Schwarzman Building’s Gottesman Exhibition Hall
and Sue and Edgar Wachenheim III Gallery and proved to be hands down the most successful
exhibition in the Library’s history. An unprecedented embarrassment of riches drawn from the
Library’s world-renowned collections, this thought-provoking exhibition was but one part of a
year of festivities that included an exciting Centennial Festival at the Schwarzman Building, a
spectacular gala, a ceremonial rededication of the Carrère & Hastings landmark, and a plethora of
special programming and activities at numerous other NYPL locations throughout 2011.
NYPL will continue to do what it has always done, and done superbly—only bigger and better.
As this year’s Annual Report demonstrates, The New York Public Library is a local community
with global implications, a community whose expert and dedicated staff serve our ever-evolving
communities—not only in New York City, but around the world.
Today, libraries must encompass more than books and archives, no matter how essential those
resources are not just for current scholars, but also for future generations of researchers and
students. Digitally, NYPL is charting the course for libraries of the future—as of course we must
and, because of our brilliant and always forward-thinking staff, are uniquely equipped to do.
For starters, our acclaimed Digital Gallery, consisting of 803,279 images, all free of copyright,
was viewed more than 127 million times this year. In addition, we pioneered in creating highly
innovative components of our online exhibitions, experimenting with a virtual “Centennial Quilt”
as a major piece of Celebrating 100 Years. And in May, NYPL released the first edition of Biblion:
The Boundless Library, an award-winning educational app and website that enables readers to
plot their own journeys—dynamic, free-associative, serendipitous—through the Library’s vast
collections.
As a native New Yorker, born and bred in Inwood and recently returned to the city, I know that
it all begins in the neighborhoods. And at the heart of the neighborhood stands the library, that
quiet—and sometimes not so quiet—place where New Yorkers of all ages and backgrounds come
together to discover knowledge, find inspiration, and forge communities. The range of programs
and services offered across our 91 locations is astonishing, demonstrating the essential role that
NYPL plays in the intellectual and civic life in neighborhoods throughout the Bronx, Manhattan,
and Staten Island.
I look forward to realizing the great mission of our Library by embracing three key areas: a
complete reenvisioning of our neighborhood libraries, including pilot programs that will refocus
and expand our much-needed educational services; the creation of a boundary-breaking central
branch at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street, making it a hub of intellectual leadership for library users
throughout the city and the world; and the creation of a true Virtual Library. All of this will only be
possible with the complete and dedicated cooperation of our valued staff, donors, volunteers, and
friends in business and government. I am confident this will be a given, as it has been in this past
year of so many successes on so many fronts at the Library.

But acknowledging the Library’s legions of supporters, even in advance, is always a pleasure; and
for me, this year, there is no greater pleasure than in paying tribute to the many achievements
of my illustrious predecessor, Dr. Paul LeClerc, who stepped down as President of The New
York Public Library, on June 30, 2011, after 17 years of distinguished stewardship of this, the best
of all possible libraries. Because of his years of dedicated service, this “unassumingly brilliant
administrator and Voltaire scholar” (in David Remnick’s apt words) has left me—lucky me—in the
best of all possible jobs. And as you will see from this Annual Report, we are already well on our
way to reimagining—and then creating—the libraries for the future, thanks in no small part to the
marvelous and far-sighted accomplishments of our past.

The Neighborhood Libraries: Operating Revenues
The Research Libraries and Librarywide Programs:
Operating Revenues
D
espite another reduction in City funding and other financial constraints, the Library
performed exceedingly well during the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2011. Circulation
increased 15 percent and digital visits increased 23 percent over the prior fiscal year, reflecting both the Library’s efforts to make its content more relevant and accessible to users, and the
increased needs of the public during difficult economic times. Declines in public funding of nearly
$6 million—and the resulting belt-tightening—caused the Library to slightly reduce the hours it
was open to the public. This one percent reduction in open hours is the primary reason total visits
to the library also declined slightly (by less than half of one percent), even while circulation and
digital use boomed.
The Library’s financial condition remained sound because it maintained a balanced operating budget and because its endowment recovered significantly. The endowment’s market value
increased from $670 million at the end of fiscal 2010 to $814 million at the end of fiscal 2011,
reflecting investment results that place the Library among the very best performing endowments
in the country. The Library’s capital position was also bolstered by a series of events that bring The
New York Public Library closer to realizing a new consolidated central library in the Stephen A.
Schwarzman Building at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. Sales of two major buildings closed in July
and August 2011 and generated total proceeds of more than $100 million. In addition, the Library
signed a contract to sell part of another property for more than $60 million. Finally, the City has
now committed more than $150 million toward the new central library, thus giving the Library the
financial wherewithal to move forward in planning this exciting project.

In addition to planning for the new central library, NYPL is exploring a variety of major new initiatives with particular emphasis on buttressing its role of supporting the City school system and
continuing to lead the way for libraries in the digital age. The Library staff is very excited by these
initiatives—all of which are fitting for one of the leading civic institutions of New York City.

Gifts and bequests to the Library are deductible under the federal income, estate, and gift tax laws.
For federal tax purposes, the Library uses its formal corporate name: The New York Public Library,
Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations (reflecting its incorporation by the consolidation of the Astor
Library, the Lenox Library, and the Tilden Trust). The Trustees of the Library recommend that for
estate planning purposes, friends consider the following language for use in their Wills:
“I give and bequeath (dollar amount, percentage of residuary estate, or description of property)
to The New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations, Stephen A. Schwarzman
Building, Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street, New York, NY 10018, for the Library’s general purposes.”

“If at any time in the judgment of the Trustees of the Library the designated purpose of this bequest
proves to be impracticable or impossible, I authorize the Trustees to use the income and principal
of this bequest for any purpose they deem to be consistent with the general intent and purpose set
forth herein.”

Should you decide to leave a bequest to the Library in your Will, you will become a member of the
Bigelow Society. Created by the Library in 1991, the Bigelow Society is an honorary organization
whose purpose is to recognize the generosity of individuals, during their lifetime, who include this
institution in their estate plans. The Library expresses its gratitude to members by inviting them to
special Library events and by listing their names in the Annual Report under The Bigelow Society.
If you or your attorney would like to discuss a bequest with a member of the Library’s staff, please
call John M. Bacon at 212-930-0568, or write to him at [email protected] or at the following
