11 floors. Glass on ceiling made at right angles to bring in light but not the sun. Bottom floor has artifacts. Quite the place. Can go online to view books etc.

Marvellous architecture for this amazing building, blending old and new. I was amazed at the large volume of books, sitting side-by-side with modern communication and research tools! Excellent to see how many people are using this library.

The epitome of modern libraries, where books are still very much prevalent, but also all the modern communication tools. Fantastic building. Lovely to see so many people using it.
