University Library of Oslo

University Library of Oslo

The University Library of Oslo ( _no. Universitetsbiblioteket i Oslo, UBO) is a library connected to the University of Oslo. Like the University, it was established in 1811 with Georg Sverdrup as the first head librarian. It originally doubled as the Norwegian national library.

In 1913 the library building in "Henrik Ibsens gate" was completed.

In 1989 the National Library of Norway was established. It finally took over the national library tasks from the University Library in 1998, allowing the latter to concentrate on university matters. The same year, the University Library left the building in "Henrik Ibsens gate" for the newly constructed Georg Sverdrup House, located at the University of Oslo campus at Blindern.
