===Libraries=== ====The College Library==== The College Library is on the third floor of the college above Helwys Hall and houses many key works relating to theology, as well as many works on history, geography and politics. It contains graduate study rooms as well as a number of computers.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} In the library, there is a semi-circular window with sixteen panels, on which is etched a map of the world with many interesting symbols and emblems. The window came from the Glasgow Empire Exhibition of 1937 and is a fine example of modern glasswork. The library contains portraits of both William Carey and [[John Bunyan]], and outside it hangs a portrait of [[Henry Havelock]].{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} ====Angus Library and Archive==== {{main|Angus Library and Archive}} The Angus Library and Archive is a scholarship library holding volumes and documents on Baptist history and culture. The core of the collection was left to the college by Joseph Angus who was principal from 1849 to 1893. The Angus now comprises over 70,000 printed books, pamphlets, journals, church and association records, church histories, manuscript letters and other artefacts from the late fifteenth century to the present day. The collection relates to the life and history of Baptists in Britain and the wider world. There is a considerable amount of material from non-Baptist sources relating to issues and controversies in which Baptists were involved.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} The Angus Library and Archive are used by scholars researching Baptist history, the history of dissent in the UK, and the social history of foreign missions and linguistics. It is also used by members of the public to research family and local history.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rpc.ox.ac.uk/index.php?pageid=19&tln=ResourceCentres |title=Regent's Park College | Regent's Park College |website=Rpc.ox.ac.uk |date=12 March 2017 |access-date=28 March 2017}}</ref>
