  • Cork City Libraries Summer Reading Challenge 2019 | Join Red and His Friends for a Summer of Reading Fun | Register Now
    corkcitylibraries.ie Events Edition July/August 2019 18 Photo Claire Keogh You hold in your hands a very special publication – the first Events of the New City. On 31 May many months of planning and preparation came to fruition when Ballincollig, Glanmire, and Blarney Libraries joined the City Libraries network. They join the other seven libraries – the City Library on Grand Parade, - Hollyhill, Blackpool and Mayfield libraries on the Northside, as well as Douglas, Tory Top and Bishopstown Libraries south of the river, making a much stronger library network. Cork City Council Libraries do not see the revision of the City Council boundary as the City Council Library Service expanding and, in the process, absorbing three new libraries and the surrounding catchment areas. Rather, we see it as an opportunity to create a new Library Service for a New City. We bring with us all that we as a service have learned in 127 years, our many strengths and achievements. We must be – and will be – open to other ideas and ways of doing things. We will be open to the experiences of the staff and patrons of our new libraries, in Ballincollig, Glanmire, and Blarney. Highlights this summer include Heritage Week, which runs from 17 to 25 August, ‘Branch Out and Read’, our summer reading challenge for kids as well as ‘The Summer School of Creative Writing’ which takes place in the City Library, Ballincollig and Glanmire Libraries. The new city will also see a host of exhibitions on display in all our libraries. Looking forward to seeing you, your family and friends in your local library during the first summer of our New City.

  • Spotlight on Cork
    SPOTLIGHT ON CORK WELCOME TO CORK, IRELAND Cork is a proud city of approximately 150,000 people that sits on the River Lee and at the head of Cork Harbour, the second biggest natural harbor in the world. It is a city of renowned learning with a world-class university and many specialist colleges. It is home to a thriving business economy that includes giants in the pharmaceutical and technology industries. With more than 24 festivals, a rich music and arts history, and successful professional sports teams, Cork was recently named the European Capital of Culture. Contents Climate and Geography 02 Cost of Living and Transportation 03 Visa, Passport, Language, and Currency Information 04 Lifestyle, Sports, and Attractions 05 Culture, Shopping, and Dining 06 Schools and Education 07 GLOBAL MOBILITY SOLUTIONS l SPOTLIGHT ON CORK l 01 SPOTLIGHT ON CORK Cork Climate Graph 100oF 10 in.
