Not just Brooklyn. The program now includes Brooklyn, Boston, LA county, San Diego, and Seattle public libraries.

If I could (my old phone won't work entirely with this app), I'd post the Gene Wilder/Willy Wonka meme of "So shines a good deed in a weary world." Read, you wondrous young minds. I know of no other "escape" that actually makes you stronger. It can be respite; it can be fuel. Read copiously.
