Well, you may call it "the front room" of the National Library. Not a place for a serious use, but something beautiful to show!
They actually do have some other places to keep the real precious objects of the National Library as for example some 9th century manuscripts, places where those gems can be kept 100% clean and save.

Well, from your picture I'd say the room serves its purpose perfectly
