Library Collections

The University of Notre Dame’s Hesburgh Library can sustain advanced research in all areas of Irish society and culture. Its holdings include outstanding Berkeley, Swift, Goldsmith and Burke Collections, the Loeber Collection of Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century Irish Fiction, the Captain Francis O’Neill Irish Music Collection and an extensive range of primary and secondary material relating to the 1798 Rising, the Great Famine, 1845-52 and Irish-America. The Library also has extensive holdings in the literature (in Irish and English), economy, religion, and politics of contemporary Ireland. Historically, the research collections tend to be particularly strong in eighteenth century Irish history, with strong collections emerging in nineteenth and twentieth century Irish literature and music as well. Although considerably augmented in recent years, the collections’ formation dates back to the mid-nineteenth century.

Chuir Bailiúchán Risteárd Uí Ghlaisne an Ghaeilge chun cinn go mór sa leabharlann, agus tá nualitríocht na Gaeilge mar chuid thábhachtach den bhailiúchán Éireannach ag an bpointe seo. .
