National Library staff can make photocopies, printouts, digital images and prints of items in the Collection depending on the size, format and condition of the material. Orders can be placed in person in the Copying Services room, by telephone to +353 1 6030 214, or by email to copy-orders@nli.ie. Alternatively please download and complete the Copy Order Form CopyOrderForm_NLI.pdf (0 MB, Adobe PDF).
