Summary
Galway’s libraries are set to transform with a massive €212,800 boost—second-highest in the nation—funding sensory upgrades, faster Wi-Fi, and modern furniture to make spaces more inclusive and functional for all. Part of a five-year, €22.6 million national Libraries Capital Programme, this year’s €3 million allocation also includes €2.6 million to revamp the mobile library fleet with 12 new vans, including two built by a Spanish firm—timely, as their current van is out of commission. The goal? Modernize, expand access, and ensure libraries remain vital, welcoming hubs for every member of the community.
