A new space for our local community: North Clondalkin Library

South Dublin County Council is delighted to announce the launch of the public consultation phase for the proposed development of a library to serve the North Clondalkin area. The plans for the proposed new library will be unveiled on Tuesday 4th February at 8 pm in Rowlagh Community Centre and will be on public display for 6 weeks until the 19th March. At this stage the proposed library is still subject to planning and financial approval.

The new library is planned to be centrally located within the established village area of Rowlagh, close to existing community facilities and schools.

The proposed library is designed to be a welcoming and inclusive space, offering IT facilities, meetings rooms, quiet reading areas and a children’s library. The contemporary design maximises the use of natural light and ventilation throughout the building, and will also open up into the surrounding green area with a library garden for outdoor activities.

When constructed library members will be able to avail of all the services on offer for free, from borrowing the latest bestseller, attending storytelling sessions with their children, accessing the Internet or just reading the newspaper.
