Transcription: The facility is a center for high-tech storage and retrieval of information fully computerized. In addition to its opportunities for study, the library also offers guided tours. Exhibitions in the public rooms are open to visitors who wish to explore on their own. Among the greatest printed treasures on display is a flawless vellum copy of the Gutenberg Bible, dating from 1450. Both the richness of the building and the riches of its holdings make the Library of Congress outstanding in a city filled with extraordinary attractions.
