As far removed from Idols as it could ever be :lol:
fairly sure this is the standard getup for research students these days:

the modern librarian isnt what you remember from those stuffy imagines from the 50s & 60s... the cultural library of the 2020s will encompass all modern traditions - like irish cultural awareness day...

someone must have thought it was black history month though, easy mistake to make.
 
I had heard rumours ages ago that they were going to relocate to the site of the hotel in Keel Square but not sure of the craic?
I imagine it would be quite a bit more expensive than their current facility in terms of rent and business rates though it would be in a much more prominent location. Wonder if they did move there whether prices would go up and how it may affect their business model.
Is it? Shows how long I’ve been then. Thought it was still on fawcett street still
Yeah think it’s been in their a good few years now. It’s pretty poor if I am honest with barely any books so a bigger and better facility is needed though it would need to be more than just a library.

What I had heard was the offer to move to the hotel site was a sweetner to leave the Corner Flag building but there was other premises offered to them too?
