Getting a passport in Brooklyn just got a lot easier
Brooklyn Public Library expands passport center, shortens lines
Getting a passport can be a drag, but Brooklyn Public Library is making it much easier with an expanded passport center at the Central Library in Prospect Heights.
While passports can still be processed at many post offices across Brooklyn, the library offers more services, longer hours and shorter lines.
Passport applicants can even browse the stacks while waiting; a paging system will alert them when their paperwork is ready.
The newly renovated passport center includes a larger space, with a 15-person waiting room; more staff; easier access to publications and forms; computers for applicants to fill out forms electronically; and longer hours on Saturdays and Sundays.
