Dublin City has a remarkable collection of historical documents, many of which are under the care of Dublin City Libraries and Archive. Dr Maighread Ní Mhurchadha has drawn on the contents of these and other records to tell the stories of some of Dublin's residents during the Renaissance period in her book Early Modern Dubliners.
