We do not have parking facilities for readers. On-street parking in the vicinity of the Library is limited and subject to time restraints. However, there are a number of commercial multistorey carparks in the immediate area including the Setanta Centre and Schoolhouse Lane Carpark.

The Library’s main Reading Room, exhibition area, seminar room and café are all wheelchair accessible. The Reading Room, the exhibition area and the shop in the National Photographic Archive are also wheelchair accessible.

The National Library of Ireland is a research library, not a lending library. Readers must consult Library material in one of our Reading Rooms.

It is possible to order a copy of any page from a newspaper,  including the front page as  a gift. Please see our Copying Services page for information on placing an order and a list of prices.

Newspapers and other periodical literature may not be immediately available to readers after date of publication. Please consult our online catalogue and newspaper database for the most up to date issue available for consultation in either hardcopy or microfilm surrogate format.

Newspapers are fragile because they are printed on poor quality paper which degrades very quickly. Regular use and exposure to light accelerates disintegration and this will eventually lead to the destruction of these valuable collections. Therefore, microfilm surrogates are available to readers in order to protect and preserve the original newspapers collection.
