Contact: [email protected] One Staff, Two Branches THE QUEENS BOROUGH PUBLIC LIBRARY AND NEW YORK CITY’S FISCAL CRISIS OF THE 1970S Jeffrey A. Kroessler John Jay College of Criminal Justice, CUNY ABSTRACT: During the fiscal crisis of the 1970s, New York City imposed deep budget cuts on the three library systems: the New York Public Library, the Brooklyn Public Library, and the Queens Borough Public Library. As the city cut budgets, the public demanded that libraries be kept open, and elected officials struggled to do both. The Queens Library’s staff was reduced from over 1,100 to barely 700, with branches open only two or three days a week, with one staff serving both. New buildings remained vacant because the library lacked funds to operate them. When the library proposed closing some branches, the NAACP successfully sued. In the late 1970s, the three systems came to rely upon federal monies for the first time for basic operations. In the early 1980s the city regained its finan- cial footing and library services stabilized, but the budgeting process for the libraries has remained politicized.

Through examining New York City-based newspapers, particularly the Daily News, and the New York Times, as well as other periodicals written at the time such as Time Magazine, the research focused specifically on Mayor John Lindsay’s order to lower all American flags atop municipal buildings on October 15, 1969—Moratorium Day—and how the pro-war movement exploited that decision to further their own efforts to support President Richard Nixon’s foreign policy.
