Some highlights include the comprehensive collection of books, scores and recordings in the Central Library’s Fine Arts Division; the Louis Armstrong archive at East Elmhurst and the Black Heritage Reference Center at Langston Hughes Community and Cultural Center.
Queens library also offers contemporary and classical performances by professional jazz musicians throughout the year.
