Twenty-seven proposals for the new city library at the potato market

This brochure documents twenty seven proposals for a New Limerick Library, designed by third year architecture students in SAUL, the School of Architecture at the University of Limerick, in the autumn semester 2008. These projects shall serve as a basis for a wider discussion on the aspirations and demands regarding contemporary library facilities in Limerick. They stand in support of plans to establish modern facilities for the Limerick Public Library and promote a design competition amongst professional architects to select the best project. A public exhibition of these designs was hosted by the Limerick City Library as SAUL’s contribution to Library Ireland Week 2009.
