About Our Library

Hollyhill Library service operates from the Sonas building at the rear of the new Drum building, across Courtown Drive from our former premises in the Hollyhill shopping centre. Walk up Foyle Avenue from the entrance to the Doctor's surgery, and we are the last door on the right. This location is temporary, but we provide a full library service for the whole community. During the summer of 2011, funding was made available to build our new library.

Planning notice and architect drawings of our new library building are now on display in Hollyhill Library. Call 021 4924928 for information.

Please note that as of 25 January 2012, children aged 7 or under may not be left unattended in Hollyhill Library and all other Cork City Libraries. Full information on our Kids page or ring the library on 021 4924928.
