Getting old tabloid papers?

Sabre0001 · 2011-08-26 16:54:05

Hey guys, Doing some research at the moment that requires looking through a tabloid for key words. Just wondering where in Limerick might be best for microfilm or hard copies of such? Thanks!

City Library have microfilm of old (and not so old) newspapers with a printout facility, presume the County Library in Dooradoyle have something similar.

Might be worth giving the UL Library a call, big archive centre out there too.

Perfect! Had an inkling that town or UL might be the way to go...
