Photos of work in Progress on building the branch library

The development of the new branch Library at Lisdoonvarna, officially opened by Councillor Sean Hillery, Chairman of Clare County Council, was made possible by the co-operation between Clare County Council and the local community and proves once again that a vibrant community will always find a solution where co-operation exists. The main emphasis in the new branch is on children’s material and the more popular adult books. While lack of space forces this decision on management, the branch will have the full backing of the Ennistymon Branch Library just a few miles away, in accordance with the library’s regional policy.

A small public park has also been created in conjunction with the library building. This will be another significant feature to include in the Lisdoonvarna walkabout, and seating similar to that which adorned the site at the turn of the century is provided. Professional advice has been obtained in relation to the trees and shrubs on the site to ensure that no damage is done to the natural environment.
