Queens Public Library is proud to partner with the Anne Frank House at the Center for Jewish History for the special initiative Summer of Reflection: The Legacy of Anne Frank.
This initiative, which also includes Brooklyn Public Library, the New York Public Library, New York City Public Schools, and Union Square Partnership, commemorates what would have been Anne Frank's 96th birthday.
We hope you will take advantage of these two special opportunities in honor of Anne Frank's life and legacy.
Diary of a Young Girl Book Giveaway
One of the most translated and frequently challenged books in the world, The Diary of a Young Girl is Anne Frank’s firsthand account of hiding with her family from the Nazis in Amsterdam for two years during the Second World War.

Queens Public Library is proud to be one of the institutions in New York City where free copies of Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl are available.
