Bygningen blev opført i 1856-1861 med Johan Daniel Herholdt (1818-1902) som arkitekt. Den skulle rumme universitetets bibliotek, som blev grundlagt i 1482. Bygningen blev gennemgribende restaureret i 1996-97 ved kgl. byg-ningsinspektor David Bretton-Meyer (f. 1937).
Bygningens ydre er markant præget af den gennemførte brug af røde mursten og murstensornamentik. Det indre præges tilsvarende af gule mursten og murstensornamentik. Den offentligt tilgængelige bogsal er et af Danmarks mest særprægede rum med sin smukt dekorerede støbejernskonstruktion. Freskomalerierne i loftet er udført af Georg Hilker (1807-75).
Universitetsbiblioteket rummer i dag betjening af studerende og arbejdspladser for specialestuderende.
