Services for Adults & Young Adults

Here you can find information and assistance with obtaining government ID, filing income taxes, and enrolling in a health insurance plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. Browse our many resources for health insurance as well as popular tax forms, instructions, and filing help for those who qualify.

Services for 50+ Adults

The Library strives to meet the needs of all New Yorkers, as well as its virtual community worldwide. As the average age increases with the aging of the Baby Boom generation—generally accepted as those born from 1946 to 1964—we've added programs designed for those 50 years of age and older.
