This website is created and maintained by staff of the library's ICT
& Information Services Department at Library Headquarters, Ennis,
County Clare, Ireland. This 'website' is in reality a collection of
separate websites and services, including the Online Catalogue, Foto
(the photograph collection), the Music of Clare project, the online
Forums, the library blog, the eBooks service, the GoogleMini search
facility and the 'main' website covering library services and information
about the culture of County Clare. It would not have been possible to
create the wide range of information about County Clare on this site
without the contributions
of CLASP, a FÁS Community Response Scheme sponsored by four
library staff members which ran from 1995 to 2006, and numerous volunteers
from around the world who have helped us in transcribing material, for
example for the Tithe
Applotment Books project. We are very grateful to all those who
have donated material for inclusion on the website. We are also very
grateful to all those who have identified people and places in our photo
collection, and to all who have provided so much valuable information
on our online Forums. We are also grateful to Rainer Kosbi for developing
his online map systems, and to Eric Stackhouse and his staff at Pictou
Antigonish Regional Library, Nova Scotia, for their generous co-operation
re the online forums.
