Jeremiah's Vanishing New York has a brief notice on the New York Public Library's planned renovation, with links. The blogger, Jeremiah Moss, reports that the New York City Landmarks Commission has approved the Library's plan to renovate the landmark Fifth Avenue location. The plans include removing the building's book stacks (a structural component of the building) and consolidating the Science and Industry Business Library (SIBL, now at 34th and Madison) and the MidManhattan (circulating) Library. *sigh*
