New Utrecht Library has operated in its current location since 1956, but its history dates to 1894 and the opening of the Free Library of the Town of New Utrecht. The branch joined the BPL system in 1901.

Whether measured by circulation, program attendance or door counts, New Utrecht is one of Brooklyn’s busiest branches. Patrons of all ages flock to New Utrecht for its diverse offering of programs, the most popular of which include Summer Meals, Kids Create, Chinese brush painting, Story Play, computer courses and ESOL classes. The library’s large auditorium and multiple meeting rooms can accommodate a wide range of special programs, many of which are geared toward older adults.

New Utrecht Library Redevelopment Project

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and Brooklyn Public Library (BPL) are collaborating on the redevelopment of New Utrecht Library with a new state-of-the-art library and 100% affordable housing above it. The redevelopment will be initiated through a competitive process called a Request for Proposals (RFP) that asks developers to respond to a set of goals and guidelines that reflect community priorities. Community priorities for the new library and affordable housing will be established through an extensive community engagement process, which will build on several years of BPL’s ongoing engagement of New Utrecht Library patrons.
