The Dublin Festival of History aims to highlight fresh perspectives on history and its importance in our everyday lives. This year’s festival has attracted best-selling Irish and international historians to Dublin for a high-profile programme of history and debate.

One of the aims of the collection is to reassure parents that we have books in stock for them specifically, as sterile as possible if they are nervous about infection

We are delighted to share the ‘History on Your Doorstep’ series with you, written by Dublin City Council's Historians in Residence.

To use a library resource, and to use it from home, you may need your library card and password.

Ireland Reads is a campaign to get the whole country reading during February in the lead up to a national day of reading on Saturday, February 22.

On behalf of myself and the Library Team, I want to say a huge thank you for using our library service throughout the year. It’s always a pleasure to welcome you, assist with your queries, and, of course, help you find that very special book.

Libraries are one of THE most important gathering places in our communities. Not only are they places of learning and personal growth but leisure.

Going to school for the first time is a big milestone in a child's life. It's an exciting, yet somewhat nervous time for the whole family. We have put together a list of some of our favourite 'Going to School' books, which we hope will help your family navigate this new experience. All books are available to borrow or reserve in your local library.

The novels nominated and shortlisted for the Award will be available for readers to borrow from Dublin City Libraries and from public libraries around Ireland, or can be borrowed as eBooks and some as eAudiobooks on the free Borrowbox app, available to all public library users.

Please note : children must be accompanied by an adult(s) at all times. The library is monitored by CCTV at all times.
