You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Uppsala University Library''' (((lang-sv|Uppsala universitetsbibliotek))) at [[Uppsala University]] in [[Uppsala]], [[Sweden]], consists of 11 subject libraries, one of which is housed in the old main library building, [[Carolina Rediviva]]. The library holds books and periodicals, manuscripts, musical scores, pictures, and maps.

==History==
[[File:Carolina Rediviva main reading room.jpg|thumb|One of the reading rooms at Carolina Rediviva]]
The exact site of the library during its earliest years is not known, but the university from its foundation in 1477, was located on what became known as "Student Island" in the [[Fyris|Fyris River]], where the academy mill&nbsp;– now the [[Upplandsmuseet|provincial museum]]&nbsp;– was later built. In 1566, King [[Eric XIV of Sweden|Eric XIV]] donated the old chapter house, south of the [[Uppsala Cathedral]], to be used for lectures. After the construction of the Gustavianum in the 1620s, this building was referred to as the ''Collegium vetus'' or ''Gamla akademien'' ("the old academy"), until it was renamed in 1704 through a decision of the [[wikt:consistory|consistory]] (university board) and called the ''Academia Carolina'', in honour of kings [[Charles IX of Sweden|Charles IX]], [[Charles XI of Sweden|Charles XI]] and [[Charles XII of Sweden|Charles XII]]. When a new library building was eventually constructed, it received the name ''Carolina Rediviva'', "the revived Carolina", in honour of the old building, but was located to an entirely different place.

As of approximately 1871, the library contained approximately 200,000 volumes and 8,000 manuscripts, including the [[Codex Argenteus]].<ref name=midnight>((cite book|last=Du Chaillu|first=Paul|title=The Land of the Midnight Sun, volume 1|year=1882|publisher=Harper & Brothers|location=New York|pages=319))</ref>

The library remained in Gustavianum, which luckily escaped the flames in 1702, until [[Carolina Rediviva]] was completed in 1841. Carolina Rediviva has since retained the status of central library of the university until a reorganization in the 1990s did away with the concept of a centralized library organization and divided the library into a number of branch libraries of equal status, with Carolina being home of one of the branch libraries dedicated to [[humanities]] and [[social sciences]]. Nevertheless, the central functions of the library system largely remain in the building, as do the "cultural heritage units" (the Department for manuscripts and music and the Department for maps and prints).

Parallel to the development of the central library, the "seminars" (later called "departments") of the university had their own libraries. Currently, the library's collections are dispersed in the subject libraries. In 2004 most of subject libraries within the Faculties of Arts, Languages and Theology were amalgamated to form the new Karin Boye Library in the English Park Centre for the Humanities, next to the old cemetery.

==Some significant manuscripts and collections==
[[File:Codex Argenteus.jpg|thumb|The [[Codex Argenteus]]]]
The university library of Uppsala was mainly created through the large donations in the early 17th century of confiscated libraries from monasteries, especially that in Vadstena and the [[Greyfriars Monastery, Stockholm]] (including the books donated to it by [[Kanutus Johannis]]), and the important collection of Baron Hogenskild Bielke who had been executed in 1605 and whose library was confiscated by the crown and donated by [[Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden|Gustav Adolph]] in 1621.<ref>((cite web|title=Ebielke|url=http://www.ub.uu.se/arv/special/ebielke.cfm|publisher=www.ub.uu.se|access-date=3 September 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070607082612/http://www.ub.uu.se/arv/special/ebielke.cfm|archive-date=7 June 2007|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all))</ref>

In 1669, the University Library received the Codex Upsaliensis, one of the four main [[manuscripts of the Prose Edda]].

The many wars in which Sweden took a part in the 17th century brought many important manuscripts and collections to Sweden as spoils of war, some of which eventually ended up in Uppsala. (For example, in 1626 Swedish looted from the Polish Kolegium Jezuitów w Braniewie some 1300 books and manuscripts). The most famous example is the ''[[Codex Argenteus]] (the "Silver Bible")'', most of what remains of Bishop [[Ulfilas]]'s translation of the New Testament into [[Gothic language|Gothic]], which was looted in Prague. Another example is the ''Copernicana'', the main part of the library of astronomer [[Nicolaus Copernicus]], looted by the Swedish Army in [[Kraków]]. The so-called [[Emperor's Bible]] was lost when Swedish troops occupied [[Goslar]] in Germany, and eventually also ended up in Uppsala University Library.

Later donations and purchases include many archives and collections of various Swedish families and individuals, such as the personal papers of King [[Gustav III of Sweden|Gustav III]], which were left to the library, to be opened only 50 years after the King's death.

More recently acquired collections include the ''Bibliotheca Walleriana'' and the ''Waller manuscript collection'', collected by Dr [[Erik Waller (collector)|Erik Waller]], and partly donated, partly purchased by the library. It is one of the largest libraries of books concerned with the history of science and medicine, and a manuscript collection mostly of letters from notable scientists. The manuscript collection is in the process of being scanned and published on [http://waller.ub.uu.se/ the web].

The ''Bodoni collection'' is the largest collection of prints of [[Giambattista Bodoni]] (1740–1813) outside his native [[Parma]]. It was donated by the industrialist Erik Kempe in 1959 and later extended with funds donated at the same time.

The music collections includes the ''[[Düben collection]]''<ref>((cite web|title=Duben Collection Info|url=http://www.musik.uu.se/duben/DubenCollectionInfo.php|publisher=www.musik.uu.se|access-date=3 September 2016))</ref> which was accumulated from 1640 until 1718 by the [[Von Düben|Düben]] family, a German family of musicians which included a number of members serving as Hofkapellmeister of the royal court orchestra. It contains a large selection of 17th-century music, notably important works by [[Dieterich Buxtehude|Buxtehude]] not elsewhere preserved. The [[Düben collection]] has been catalogued and is in the process of being scanned and published on the web: https://www2.musik.uu.se/duben/Duben.php

Other music collections are those from the manors of Leufsta and Gimo, the collection of [[Hugo Alfvén]], that of the [[Joseph Martin Kraus]], and the various collections that have been taken as spoils of war, such as the [[Cancionero de Uppsala]], a 16th-century collection of Spanish music printed in Venice 1556 and not preserved in any other copy.<ref>((cite web|title=Musik|url=http://www.ub.uu.se/arv/special/musik.cfm|publisher=www.ub.uu.se|access-date=3 September 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051110194053/http://www.ub.uu.se/arv/special/musik.cfm|archive-date=10 November 2005))</ref>

==Current organization==
The library is headed by a Library Director, the head librarian (at the moment [[Lars Burman (litteraturvetare)|Lars Burman]]).
