FILE - This Sept. 28, 1998 file photo shows the Rose Main Reading Room at the New York Public Library in New York. The reading room will be closed for the next six months while its ceiling is inspected and repaired. A plaster rosette fell from the reading room's 52-foot-tall ceiling at the end of May. The ceiling is adorned with murals of billowing clouds and decorations molded in plaster. The reading room, roughly the length of two city blocks, features long oak tables lit by bronze lamps. It attracts 2.3 million visitors a year. (AP Photo/Ed Bailey, File)
