The Brooklyn Public Library will celebrate National Dog Day on Aug. 26 with Pups on the Plaza, a canine carnival in front of its Central Library branch. The shindig will feature a doggie costume contest, dog-themed readings, pet adoptions, and free portraits for pups — activities that offer the perfect day for Brooklyn’s pooch-loving bookworms, according to the event’s organizer.
