Thanks very much! Think it's a great example of co-operation. Others in the series are posted on our Flickr Commons stream, though not all of the counties are there yet. We're going alphabetically, so Leitrim should be going up some time this week...

The arches are in my hometown of newry – how terrific it looks in the imagery. Gives me such a sense of how we are simply passing through time while these great structures remain. Very interesting project – bravo!

You're right, Peter, we're still working on it! But in the meantime, we're working our way around Ireland featuring a "then" and "now" photo of places every Wednesday on our Flickr Commons Stream. This is Main Street, Belturbet, Co. Cavan in the late 19th century and again on Sunday, 5th August 1990.

What a great project! I read about it in the Genealogical Society of Ireland’s newsletter, which implied that the digitised photos were viewable online. However I guess you’re still working on that? Can’t wait to see them.

Great work, keep it up! Peter

You certainly did spend time with our collections, Sarah! My copy of Into the Light is very well thumbed indeed…

Congrats on this wonderful work–a labor of love from which the world will benefit. Support from the NLI’s head of collections opened the door. Well done, NLI, and project coordinators. I was lucky to spend some time at the NLI with these collections way back before they came to Internet awareness, and am delighted to see this development!
