I love the New York Public Library for connecting me to worlds of books! The research division allowed me to read the Indian-published work of Nandalal Bose, discussed in Sumana Roy's How I Became a Tree.

But NYPL affords access to more than academic titles. Delivered conveniently to my nearest neighborhood branch I can check out books no university library would stock, from children's books like Sylvaine
Jaouiand Anne Crahay's I'm like a tree and a tree's like me (with clever holes in its pages) to graphic novels like Jeff Lemire and Phil Hester's rather darker Family Tree, where some humans become trees.
