Message from the City Librarian
Published on 12th May 2020
Hello Everyone,
It has been a busy few weeks as we get used to delivering the DCC library service in a different way. We hope that you are trying the various options now offered to you digitally from e-books, newsletters, magazines and music to the many online courses.
The Government has announced that public libraries may open from the 8th of June. As you can imagine this will be a challenge for all of us. Please be assured that library staff will embrace all the changes that will come our way as we seek to provide the library service across the City of Dublin.
We will continue to explore new ways of service delivery over the coming months so watch this space. We know that this pandemic will be with us for some time and that we must all learn to co-exist with it. Library staff will follow public health and government advice at all times.
We expect that re-opening will be on a phased basis and we should have an operational plan in place by the 18th of May to share with you. We look forward to opening the doors of our libraries again and seeing you face to face in the near future. In the meantime do keep in touch with us - you’ll find our social media details below, and look after yourselves.
Stay safe.
Mairead Owens,
City Librarian
