IRISH SEMINAR 2007
LIBRARY INFORMATION

Conducting Research in Dublin.

The research facilities listed below all have closed access collections, and most require readers to apply for a reader’s ticket.  For these reasons, it is advisable to explore the website and/or make inquiries about books or documents before visiting for the first time.  If you come to my desk, I will make you up your own personalized introductory Library letters to take with you to the various Libraries as Notre Dame has an agreement with all for this purpose.  Caroline
