The origin of Leeds Beckett University (LBU) dates back to the establishment of Leeds Mechanics Institute in 1824. The institute originally had two rooms, a classroom and a library, located at a site on Park Row. It moved to South Parade in 1841 and merged with the Leeds Literary Society the next year. The Leeds Mechanics’ Institute and Literary Society moved to a new building on Cookridge Street in 1968. The institute was renamed as the Leeds Institute of Science, Art and Literature in 1897. In 1970, it merged with three former institutions to form Leeds Polytechnic. In 1976, the City of Leeds and Carnegie College and the James Graham College joined Leeds Polytechnic. It became Leeds Metropolitan University and began granting degrees in 1989. It was given its current name in 2013.
