The Cullman Center Institute for Teachers offers two distinct programs for professional development that give teachers an opportunity to enrich their understanding of history and literature and to learn about doing research in one of the world's great libraries. The Institute is located in The New York Public Library's landmark building on Fifth Avenue at 42nd Street at The Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers.

The Cullman Center Spring and Summer Seminars are limited to 15 participants each. All educators are welcome to apply; but we give priority to New York City public middle and high school English and history teachers, librarians and administrators.

The New York Public Library’s Division of Teaching & Learning offers programs and services that connect students and teachers with engaging and unique resources.

Please note: Readings and/or dates are subject to change. Please call the individual library to verify this information. Pre-registration is required for most groups.
