The collections at the Maughan Library support the KCL teaching and research interests of Humanities, Law and Science. It was formerly the home to the headquarters of the Public Record Office and was acquired by the
university in 1998.
Designed by Sir James Pennethorne and constructed in 1851, it is a Grade II listed building. Inside the library is a dodecagonal reading room, inspired by that of the British Museum. A former medieval chapel is now an exhibition space showcasing the special
collections of the library.
