The Middle Village Library, located
at 72-31 Metropolitan Ave., will close on
Nov. 8 at 6 p.m. for “an interior maintenance
project” that will last until next
spring.
The $1 million project will consist of
replacing its HVAC system, or upgrading
the heating ventilation and air conditioning
system, according to Queens
Public Library spokesperson Elisabeth
de Bourbon. The funds were secured by
the Queens Delegation of New York City
Council and Mayor Bill de Blasio.
The Middle Village Library will close
next Friday in preparation for the construction,
which will begin before the
end of the year.
The library is set to reopen in February
2020.
In the meantime, the Queens Public
Library will provide mobile library
services outside of the Middle Village
branch on Fridays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
starting Nov. 15.
Some nearby libraries that residents
can go to are the North Forest Park
Library at 98-27 Metropolitan Ave.;
the Glendale Atlas Park Mall Library
at 8000 Cooper Ave.; and the Maspeth
Library at 69-70 Grand Ave. Google Maps
