The New York Public Library (NYPL)'s New Dorp branch is located at 309 New Dorp Lane. The one-story branch opened in 1907 as the New Dorp Community Library. While the NYPL started providing books to the New Dorp branch through its Bookmobile program in 1909, the branch did not become an NYPL branch until 1926. The branch was renovated in 2000.
