'''[[Duke Humfrey's Library]]''' is the oldest reading room in the [[Bodleian Library]] at the [[University of Oxford]]. It is named after [[Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester]], a connoisseur of literature who donated his collection of 281 books to the university at his death in 1447. Books were hand-written at the time and his legacy was considered an extraordinarily generous donation, since the university previously had only 20 books. Duke Humfrey's Library was used as the library of [[Hogwarts]] for the filming of the ''[[Harry Potter (film series)|Harry Potter]]'' films.
