The Sunnyside branch of the Queens Public Library will reopen Thursday following its closure for construction.

The library, located at 43-06 Greenpoint Ave., will reopen after it shut down Nov. 5 in order for the entrance to be revamped to make it ADA compliant and accessible to all customers. The work involved building a ramp and installing new doors.

The branch will offer to-go service, one of 36 QPL locations to offer the service.

Customers, with to-go service, are able to request materials in advance either online or via the QPL app. They can also call in their requests at 718-990-0728. Patrons can then pick up materials at the branch.

No browsing is permitted under the to-go model and the computers will not be available. Face masks are required inside the library and customers must stay at least six feet apart from other people.

The 24/7 returns at the Sunnyside branch are currently operational, and customers may start making requests for materials.

The hours at the branch will be:

10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday (with a one-hour closure from 1 to 2 p.m. for cleaning);

1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesday;

12 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday (with a one-hour closure from 3 to 4 p.m. for cleaning).

Following years of frustrating delays, College Point residents now have a new north-south roadway extension between 20th Avenue and the Whitestone Expressway that will improve traffic conditions and accommodate future traffic growth around the neighborhood.

Council Member Vickie Paladino and Queens Borough President Donovan Richards joined city agencies and community leaders on Monday for the grand opening of the 132nd Street extension, a 0.7-mile extension that is the result of the “College Point Corporate Park Transportation Improvement Study” that was led by the city’s Department of Transportation.
