King Library

King Library is a university library located on the Miami University campus in Oxford. The building features a north wing with a prominent portico at the main entrance and houses extensive collections along with various study and work areas.

The original building, known as the Leland S. Dutton Wing, opened in 1966 as the start of this educational facility. The structure was expanded in 1973 with additional spaces to meet growing academic needs.

The library holds important collections in social sciences and humanities, including the Walter Havighurst Special Collections for research. These holdings make it a key place for serious academic work.

Visitors can reserve study rooms through the LibCal platform and find computer work areas and printing equipment available. Technical equipment is available for checkout, and several specialized labs offer additional resources for specific projects.

The building is known for specialized areas such as a MakerSpace, Virtual Reality Lab, and Data Visualization Lab that go beyond traditional library spaces. An audiovisual recording studio completes the offering and allows users to create professional media content.
