The Charles Deering Memorial Library is a campus architectural landmark designed by James Gamble Rogers and modeled after King's College Chapel in Cambridge, England. Opened in 1933, Deering Library served as the library's main library until 1970 and now houses several distinctive collections. The library was named for Charles H. Deering, a Northwestern benefactor and a patron to the arts.
