Newspapers Collection
Limerick City Library has a large collection of newspapers. These are mainly held on microfilm, though we also have some in original, hard copy format. Access to the microfilm readers is free and open to all. There is a fee for printing. If you wish to view the newspaper collection please book in advance to ensure you get access to a microfilm reader. Staff will be available to assist those who are unfamiliar with operating these machines.
Below is a listing of the collection:
