Soon, the need for a seat of higher learning was felt and in 1575 <a href="/wiki/Leiden_University" title="Leiden University">Leiden University</a> was founded with the spoils from a confiscated Catholic <a href="/wiki/Monastery" title="Monastery">monastery</a> nearby. </p><p>At the time the university was founded, it was immediately determined that a library in the vicinity of lecture halls was an absolute necessity. The library's first book was the <a href="/wiki/Plantin_Polyglot" title="Plantin Polyglot">Polyglot Bible</a>, printed by <a href="/wiki/Christophe_Plantin" title="Christophe Plantin">Christoffel Plantijn</a>, a gift of <a href="/wiki/William_I_of_Orange-Nassau" class="mw-redirect" title="William I of Orange-Nassau">William of Orange</a> to the library in 1575. The presentation of this book is regarded as the base on which the library is built (<i>fundamentum locans futurae aliquando bibliothecae</i>). The library became operational in the vault of the current Academy building at <a href="/wiki/Rapenburgwal" title="Rapenburgwal">Rapenburg</a> on 31 October 1587. </p><p>In 1595 the <i>Nomenclator</i> appeared, the first catalogue of Leiden University Libraries as well as the first printed <a href="/wiki/Library_catalog" title="Library catalog">catalogue</a> of an institutional library in the world. The publication of the catalogue coincided with the opening of the new library on the upper floor of the Faliede Bagijnkerk (now Rapenburg 70) next to the <a href="/wiki/Anatomical_theatre" title="Anatomical theatre">Theatrum Anatomicum</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1864 the copy for the complete alphabetical catalogue of the library in Leiden from 1575 to 1860 was finished; it was never to appear in print. Readers were able to consult alphabetical and systematic registers of the Leiden library in the form of bound catalogue cards, known as <i>Leidse boekjes</i>. This remained the cataloguing system for the library until 1988. </p><p>The 22nd Librarian of Leiden University, Johan Remmet de Groot took the initiative for the Dutch library automation endeavor PICA (<a href="/wiki/OCLC_PICA" title="OCLC PICA">Project Integrated Catalogue Automation</a>). Pica was started up in 1969 and was bought by <a href="/wiki/OCLC" title="OCLC">OCLC</a> in 2000. The first automation project in Leiden started in 1976, produced 400,000 titles via the Dutch PICA-GGC and resulted within a few years in a catalog on <a href="/wiki/Microform" title="Microform">microfiche</a>, which partly replaced the famous <i>Leiden booklets</i> catalogue. </p><p>In 1983 the library moved to its present location on Witte Singel in a new building by architect Bart van Kasteel. The first online catalogue became available in 1988. </p><p>According to <a href="/wiki/Nicholas_A._Basbanes" class="mw-redirect" title="Nicholas A. Basbanes">Nicholas A. Basbanes</a>, Leiden University Libraries represent <i>"an essential benchmark [...] not only for the teeming collection of extraordinary materials it has scrupulously gathered and maintained over a sustained period of time, but most of all for being the world's first scholarly library in a truly modern sense. The litany of 'firsts' recorded at Leiden is dazzling – the first printed catalogue to be prepared by an institution of its holdings, the first attempt to identify and maintain what today are known as 'special collections,' the first systematic attempt to develop a corps of influential friends, patrons, and benefactors throughout the world, the first 'universal' library, the list goes on and on – and underpinning it all is a humanistic approach to education and discovery that has figured prominently throughout its history, along with an unbending belief in the limitless potential of human inquiry."</i> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Leiden_University_Libraries_today">Leiden University Libraries today</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Leiden_University_Library&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Leiden University Libraries today"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Leiden_University_Library,_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg/220px-Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg/330px-Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg/440px-Leiden_University_Library%2C_Information_Centre_Huygens.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4272" data-file-height="2848" /></a><figcaption>Leiden University Libraries, Information Centre Huygens</figcaption></figure> <p>Leiden University Libraries focuses on the complete information chain.

Upon his early death, he left a legacy of 20,000 guilders for the building of a public library ("tot publycque dienst der studie") with a custodian's dwelling. Designed by the architect Arent van 's-Gravensande, the building follows the Dutch Classical style and is regarded as one of the jewels of Dutch 17th century architecture. It is distinguished by its balanced proportions and the purity of its Ionic order on top of a high basement. </p><p>The <i>Bibliotheca Thysiana</i> is the only surviving 17th century example in the Netherlands of a building that was designed as a library. It is quite extraordinary that a complete private 17th century library has been preserved and thus offers a good impression of the book collection of a young, learned <a href="/wiki/Bibliophilia" title="Bibliophilia">bibliophile</a> from the period of late <a href="/wiki/Humanism" title="Humanism">Humanism</a>.
