I seem to remember a nationally room in that building? I grew up in Pittsburgh but moved out west for a spell. Is that still a thing or did I dream that up?

It is. There are lots of them. They used to do tours but I'm not sure if they still do them because of COVID.

They’re doing paid tours now! No self guided though. Rooms remain locked when not in use.

I had a French lit class in one of the African rooms, it was cool but impossible to try and take notes in those tiny desks
