A view of the main entrance to the Library of Congress, in Washington, DC, April 6, 1950. Started in 1800 when congressmen decided they needed a library in which to look things up, today it has more than 8,500,000 books, 125,000 bound volumes of newspapers, 11,320,000 manuscripts, almost 2,000,000 maps and views, 80,000 reels of motion pictures, 2,000,000 volumes and pieces of music, 300,000 phonograph records. The library's two principal buildings, the old, ornate building (shown here) and the new annex, are the two largest buildings in the world devoted exclusively to library purposes. It takes 250 miles of shelves to hold its books. (AP Photo/William J. Smith)
