The De Valera Public Library and Gallery was opened in 1975. The building comprises the library proper and the Gallery which is situated in what was once a Presbyterian Church. This Church was built in 1856 at a cost of £600. The library proper stands on a site once occupied by an old Church of Ireland Hall built in 1890. This branch has a membership of 5,000 readers. As well as an extensive range of books for adults and children the library has a comprehensive reference section used by individuals and groups on a regular basis. There is a wide selection of magazines and newspapers available to the public on a daily basis. De Valera Library provides story-time, craft sessions and chess classes on a regular basis for children. The County’s main collection of literacy material both for adults and children is available here. Tuition books and teaching packs are also available for borrowing by Literacy Tutors. Exhibition space and notice boards are available in the library to display information on local services and any activities of educational, cultural or an entertainment nature.
