I was there too, I work for a Friends of the Library organization and we got a free both in the Special Exhibits hall - quite an experience. High-brow is an apt description, I went by that 12th century manuscript booth (double wide and the three things I looked at in the glass case were all over $100K) and the guy looked at me funny.
I think it was the fact that I was underdressed, long-sleeve tee-shirt and jeans, but hey at least it was a clean shirt. But I had no business even looking at that stuff.
