General information

The university library was built in 1907. Due to lack of space, the library had to be built during the 1950s (Klas Anshelm). The extension was done to the north of the original building so it was left relatively untouched. During the 1990s, the house got a new ventilation system and another extension was made to the north. The university library is beautifully and strategically located in the city and in the academic landscape, a stone's throw from the University House.
