In 2005, this glass structure in Seattle won a national AIA Honor Award for Architecture. Cool. But what's inside?

When the Seattle Public Library hired Rem Koolhaas and Joshua Prince-Ramus of the Dutch firm OMA to work with the Seattle firm LMN Architects for renovations, they knew they'd end up with something special. This 11-story Central Library holds more than 1.5 million books, in comparison to only 900,000 in the old library building.
