In 1753, as Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University, Browne chose the design for the Oxford Almanack. This included King Alfred, the supposed founder of University College at the time, in front of the Radcliffe Quad, University College's second quadrangle. Browne bequeathed his books to the Master of University College and his successors.〔Gibson, Strickland, ''(Some Oxford Libraries ), Oxford University Press, 1914. Digitized on Archive.org.〕 The library was originally located in a ground-floor room in the Radcliffe Quad of the College. However, when a new Master's Lodging were built, the books were moved there. They form a decorative backdrop in the dining room in fitted bookcases. He died on 7 August 1764.〔(Alumni Oxonienses 1500-1714 pp189. Oxford,University of Oxford, 1891 )〕 == References ==
