Our libraries are closed until further notice under Level 5 restrictions.
Although our buildings are closed, you can renew your items online and use our online services including ebooks, eaudiobooks and online newspapers at anytime.
All memberships due to expire in the coming weeks have been extended until 1 April 2021. All items due back have been renewed until 1 April 2021. There are no fines. We hope to see you all safe and well very soon.
Cork City Libraries are delighted to announce that prior to Level 5 closures, Douglas Library re-opened on 18 December 2020.
Although we are closed due to current restrictions, we look forward to seeing you all at some point in 2021 in the beautifully refurbished Douglas Library.
