Library

The Linen Hall library is situated in Belfast’s City Centre, popular for those interested in Irish manuscripts and local history books. The study spaces are quaint and quiet, a great alternative to The McClay library, where you will struggle to find a seat from April-July. You can also book a great historical tour, or visit an exhibition during the Writers on Writers Festival, which takes place this June, celebrating some of the greatest Irish writers of all-time.
