The University College Library in Toronto is an academic library serving University College, a constituent college of the University of Toronto. Designed by the architectural firm Mathers & Haldenby and completed in 1964, the library is housed in the east hall of the main college building in Romanesque Revival style. Originally established in 1843, the library—formerly known as the Laidlaw Library—has been relocated multiple times throughout its history before returning to its original location. It stands as one of the oldest branches of the University of Toronto Libraries system.
