Still the best reading room I ever saw was Trinity College, Dublin. Looked straight out of Hogwarts.

A little stacks fetishization for me, but could be worse.

I was there once. It's even bigger than it looks (seems hard to believe).

I have not been inside the NYPL in ages, and I walk by it all the time.

Oh, yes. Ever see All the President's Men? Famous shot where they are checking requests for info on Ted Kennedy and the camera pans up and up and up? That's the room, in the Jefferson Building. Parodied in the Simpson's episode when Sideshow Bob becomes Mayor of Springfield.
