Five hundred prequalified players will spend the night in the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building exploring its 70-miles of stacks and its world-renowned collections as they write a book together. Beginning May 21—the morning after the once-in-a-lifetime, overnight event—gamers from across the city and beyond will be able to join in at the Library and online. Head to Astor Hall on the first floor on Saturday, May 21, or Sunday, May 22, to  play along on a smartphone or laptop while feeling the power of the Library's collections firsthand.
