dlr Libraries

dlr Libraries play an important role in the social, economic and cultural wellbeing of our county. We form a key part of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council. Our eight branch libraries are a central hub and meeting place for our communities. Our libraries are open to the public for a total of 382 hours per week, including My Open Library hours− one of the most comprehensive public library services in Ireland.

We provide access to safe, vibrant and stimulating communal spaces, where adults and children can meet, learn, share, and co-create.

  • We are committed to ensuring social inclusion, diversity and access to our resources for our communities.
  • We support reading, literacy, personal development and lifelong learning.
  • We provide the technological capacity and resources to improve our library users’ experience and to bridge the digital divide.
  • We curate and coordinate a rich and varied programme of events to enhance the quality of life and wellbeing of everyone who visits our libraries.
  • We work collaboratively with a range of partners to implement key national programmes at local level.
  • We provide cultural and outreach programmes to empower communities, enable community cohesion, nurture resilience and reduce isolation and loneliness.
  • We support innovation and creativity and develop and showcase the County’s cultural identity.
