Quick question.
I need to access archive copies of Dublin and Cork papers, going back over a hundred years in some cases, for some research I'm doing.
How can I go about getting my hands on them ? Do any libraries carry microfiche copies of old Irish newspapers ? Any other options ?
Thanks.

By registering in my local public library I have online access to the Irish Times, Irish Independent, Guardian and Washington Post.
An absolutely brilliant and invaluable service IMO. I presume Her Majesty's Government will afford you the same opportunities in your local library Steve?

What are YOU doing to make it better?
I think you'd have to come to UCC or Cork City library for the cork papers.
AFAIK, the city library has the Cork Examiner until it became the Irish Examiner.
I'd imagine all universities would have the national papers.
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

You've already been advised about Pearse Street and the National Library in Kildare Street.
The former is open all day Saturday up to about 5 p.m . The National Library is only open 10-1 on Saturdays. I mention this in case you fancy popping over some weekend for research purposes. The National Library opens till 10 p.m. a couple of nights during the week if you are over for a few days.
P.S. The National Library has newspapers from all over the country even Derry and Cork
