American singer, rapper and songwriter Lizzo toured the Library's Dayton C. Miller flute collection and played one of the historical flutes during her Washington D.C. concert that week.
Plans for a new renovation to the Library's Thomas Jefferson Building, designed to offer more members of the public access to the Library's inspiring architecture and comprehensive collections, include an oculus; a circular glass window that will allow visitors to look up to the dome from the orientation center below the Main Reading Room, where visitors will begin their Library journey.
