Abstract

During the Tudor dynasty, especially after the Reformation, the king and the church fought fiercely for the management of the university. As an important part of the university, the library was naturally affected. The libraries of Oxford University and Cambridge University have undergone a stable development during the potential opposition period of conflict, and then experienced the destruction after the Reformation. Finally, during the reign of Elizabeth I, the struggle between the king and the church gradually subsided. A period of time was restored, and the libraries of the two universities were rebuilt and developed.
