The Queens Library is the official public library system of the Borough of Queens, circulating a collection of more than 7.5 million items throughout its 62 locations. The system was named as 2009's Library of the Year by the Library Journal and is one of the world's largest library systems by circulation volume, dating back to 1858. The system's Central Library offers an International Resource Center with collections in many world languages, including Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and Korean, along with a Children's Library Discovery Center located adjacent to the main library building. Free computer stations are offered at each library branch, with the special-collection Black Heritage Reference Center offered at the system's Langston Hughes Library branch.
