The New York Public Library has 86 branches. A great resource, I figured, since I'm not in school and have time to read on the subway every day.
The first day I was here, I started applying for a card online. Turns out it takes up to a month to process, so I figured I'd go in to the branch a few blocks from my apartment and apply for one there.
On Monday, I got home around 9 and the library had closed at 8.
On Tuesday, I got home around 7, but the library had closed at 5.
On Wednesday, I lost track of time and suddenly it was 8 and the library was closed.
On Thursday and Friday, the library closed at 5.
On Saturday, I walked over to the library in the early afternoon, excited that I finally had a chance to get over there. I pulled on the door and it didn't open. A sign on the door said that it was closed all weekend for Memorial Day.
On Sunday and Monday, the library was closed.
Today, the library opened at 10. I decided I'd go into work a little late so I could swing by and finally apply for my card.
The librarian said that I needed a photo ID and something with my current address on it like a bill or paycheck.
I haven't gotten a Starbucks paycheck yet and my internship is unpaid.
I went home and applied for a library card online.
