Mapleton Library Renovation

Brooklyn Public Library is renovating Mapleton Library to better serve and support you. The renovation will replace or update critical and major infrastructure: the roof and building facade, the heating and cooling system and the fire prevention and safety systems.

In addition, Mapleton Library will receive a beautiful new outdoor garden space for patrons to attend programs and enjoy a good book.

Mapleton Library is expected to reopen in 2026.
