public static const in TypeScript

Is there such a thing as public static constants in TypeScript? I have a class that looks like:

export class Library {
  public static BOOK_SHELF_NONE: string = "None";
  public static BOOK_SHELF_FULL: string = "Full";
}

In that class, I can do Library.BOOK_SHELF_NONE and the tsc doesn't complain. But if I try to use the class Library elsewhere, and try to do the same thing, it doesn't recognize it.

Here's what's this TS snippet compiled into (via TS Playground):

define(["require", "exports"], function(require, exports) {
    var Library = (function () {
        function Library() {
        }
        Library.BOOK_SHELF_NONE = "None";
        Library.BOOK_SHELF_FULL = "Full";
        return Library;
    })();
    exports.Library = Library;
});

As you see, both properties defined as public static are simply attached to the exported function (as its properties); therefore they should be accessible as long as you properly access the function itself.
