The Port Authority terminal is at 8th Avenue and 42nd Street. The New York City Public Library branch that is closest to Port Authority is the Mid-Manhattan branch, which is located just across the street from the main branch that has the lion statues in front.

The address is 455 Fifth Avenue, at the corner of East 41st Street. So it's just four avenue blocks east of Port Authority (8th Avenue ---> 7th Avenue ---> Broadway ---> 6th Avenue ---> 5th Avenue) and one block south.

Actually, it's really only three avenue blocks east, since Broadway cuts diagonally between 7th and 6th Avenues, creating two mini-avenue blocks.

You could also go to the Columbus Library branch, located at 742 Tenth Avenue, between West 50th and West 51st Streets. That's two avenue blocks west (8th ---> 9th ---> 10th) and eight to nine blocks north.
