We have a special video today from one of our #IrelandReads Reading Ambassadors- author & columnist @oneilllo ! 🎉 Louise has shared with us what reading means to her, and how she plans to #SqueezeInARead on February 25th. Are you going to do the same? 📚 @LibrariesIre

It’s fine, there’s no fines!! Just a gentle reminder- it’s never too late to return any overdue library books 📚 These two gems on Fly Fishing from the 1960s were recently brought back to #Clonakilty Library… after an unexpectedly long loan of 38 years! 🤭

#Clonakilty library is all decked out for @corkpride ! 🌈✨ As well as great #LGBTQIA book titles, their display includes the excellent work of their junior patrons, who decorated their very own rainbows for the branch's #Pride2021 colouring competition. Well done to you all! 😀
