Question 42

The records room stood behind the public counter. Its walls were lined with orderly shelves, and a narrow strip of carpet ran between them. The air felt close, especially when the door had been shut for a while. I carried a bundle of old registers to the desk and set them beside a green-shaded lamp. A clerk looked up from a ledger and pointed me towards an empty chair.

Select from the passage two words or phrases used to convey what the records room is like inside.
