The New York Times wrote, "In this magnificent new documentary, Wiseman takes his camera into the grand rooms and hallways of the main branch of The New York Public Library, as well as into more humble city branches. He sweeps into atriums and down corridors, pauses in reading and meeting rooms, and lays bare this complex, glorious organism that is the democratic ideal incarnate... [In] EX LIBRIS, democracy is alive and in the hands of a forceful advocate and brilliant filmmaker, which helps make this one of the greatest movies of Mr. Wiseman's extraordinary career and one of his most thrilling."
