Thinking of going to the New York Public Library's main branch today? They just updated their Facebook page with photos of the cast and crew of The Adjustment Bureau taking over the Rose Reading Room, so you may have trouble finding a seat. On Friday they had updated saying, "today the NYPL prepared for The Adjustment Bureau filming happening this weekend; finalized Gossip Girl details for next week; and had a 2 hour Smurf walkthrough. Needless to say, that Hollywood left NO time for updates today." (Smurfs!)
So you might want to call ahead if you don't want Emily Blunt or Chuck Bass disrupting your studies this week... or just use their online librarian bots.
