The magnificent building is located in the Parc Leopold in the middle of the European district.<\/p><p>The plans were designed by Constant Bosmans and Henri Vandeveld, assisted in this by Emile Waxweiler, professor of sociology at the ULB. The library features a spacious and comfortable reading room, abundantly lit by large windows with beautiful stained glass. Behind the Art Nouveau facades, there are numerous work rooms with padded doors.<\/p><p>A remarkable restoration campaign in the 1990s gave it back its original splendour.
