“Please note that the New York public library no longer has glasses to view the solar eclipse. All branches have distributed their supplies,” the largest public library system in the US, with 92 locations in the Big Apple, notes in X .
Since early in the morning, lines have been seen in some of the city’s libraries to get the glasses and, with just a few hours left before the big event, posters now hang from the doors of most New York libraries in which it reads: “We no longer have glasses to see the eclipse.”
To watch this phenomenon, you must use eclipse glasses and make sure they meet international standards, since looking directly at the sun can damage your eyes.
New York City will witness a partial solar eclipse this afternoon and, according to the library in its X account, the best time to see the eclipse will be at 3:25 p.m. local time, “when 91% of the Sun will be covered by the moon.”
