In spite of the fact that the University of Calcutta was formally propelled in 1857, it had no perpetual working of its own, at any rate in the early years. It may be reviewed that the University was at first approved just to hold examinations and honor degrees. In those simple phases of its development, library, historical center and other basic offices did not get as much consideration as they merited.

It was simply after the University got its very own changeless home in 1872 that endeavors were started for the setting up of a library. Its core was framed out of a little endowment of Rs. 5000 by Joykrishna Mukherjee, people in general lively Zamindar of Uttarpara.

As specialized libraries of Law and Medicine as of now existed in Calcutta and English writing, Mental Philosophy and numerous different subjects were spoken to in a few accumulations of books accessible to all or the vast majority of the individuals who were probably going to have plan of action to a University Library

As the University exercises were extending every which way, weight for settlement was as a rule progressively felt. In 1912, the Library had another home, because of the generosity of the then Maharaja of Darbhanga.

The Central Hall with its side compartments in the principal story and also the huge lobby and its side rooms in the second floor were separate to suit the quickly extending library accumulations. About this time, three entire time Assistants were delegated for the Library.

The University Library was initially implied for the utilization of the Resident Fellows just, despite the fact that authorizations were conceded occasionally to bonafide investigate laborers to utilize the Library. Later on, standards administering the utilization of the Library were changed and included Resident Registered Graduates and University educators and researchers too.

The sythesis of the University Library has experienced occasional changes. At present the University Library framework comprises of the Central Library, two grounds libraries, thirty-nine departmental libraries and two libraries of the Advanced Centers. The libraries are spread more than seven grounds. Departmental libraries are situated inside the office concerned.

The University library, at present, has an accumulation of more than ten lakh books. Other than books, the seven grounds of the University together have more than 2 lakh volumes of bound Journals, M.Phil. furthermore, Ph.D. theses, procedures of gatherings, reports, maps, norms, licenses, daily papers, original copies, microfilms, CD-ROMs. The departmental libraries serve the scholastic controls bearing their names. The Central Library serves the whole University people group.

Upwards of 20 departmental libraries out of a sum of 39, have a gathering of more than 15,000 volumes which incorporates books, bound diaries and non-book materials. The Department of Law Library holds more than 85,000 volumes in printed copy. The accumulation is solid in all perspectives with unique accentuation on lawful history and statute, business and business law, tax assessment and universal business exchanges.

The Department of Law Library's old diary accumulations incorporate works in the fields of history and other social and behavioral sciences important to legitimate research. Situated at the scholarly heartland of the city, the Central Library is effortlessly available from all the diverse grounds of the University.
