Controversial funding cuts to New York City’s public library system will be restored, Mayor Eric Adams announced Thursday — likely allowing branches to reopen on Sundays.

“In the final hours of negotiations, City Hall relented on many of the Council’s calls for funding restoration,” a source told The Post. “It came down to the wire.” In April, Adams had proposed to keep the $58 million for libraries out of next year’s budget, leading to public outcry from many Council members and advocates.

“These institutions are a critical part of New York City’s social fabric, which New Yorkers depend on for their children’s growth and the vibrancy of our city,” the mayor said in a statement.
