Aww, so many nice responses from you lovely people.
For those who are curious about the combination of library books + food/drink. The only room we were in that had books was the main reading room (the big room with the blue lights). Most of the books there appeared to be large boring indexes of things (think like Congressional Proceedings and that sort of thing). See first photo below, with bonus wine bottles. I don’t think they are very valuable or anything. The dancing was in another room (like maybe a meeting room or something) and the ceremony in the outdoor courtyard, and there were also some things in the atrium/stairway area. The stacks with most of the books were off limits.
J had fun posing with the books.
