Clinton Hill Library was built in 1973 to meet the needs of a vibrant and diverse community. The single-story building is set in a leafy landmarked neighborhood of brownstones, schools and daycare facilities. Children’s programs at Clinton Hill are very popular, and are well-attended by the community.
