Khadijah Haman loves the Library for all the resources it offers for her baby. As the mother of a young child, she has observed the gap between educational opportunities for the rich and the poor—and how the Library helps bridge that gap. In this week’s Library Story, she describes how she’s found relationships and resources at her local branch, and how it has become a source of joy, friends, and learning for her child.

Library Stories is a video series from The New York Public Library that shows what the Library means to our users, staff, donors, and communities through moving personal interviews.
