The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

The 2029 election race has begun, and some are already at an advantage

Co-options present an opportunity to include more women in politics

Went to 2 gigs in Iveagh Gardens Dublin this week. In advance, thought Elvis would be the better of the two. As it happens EC was pretty disappointing 😞 But Johnny Marr was sublime. A different class. #SpeirGorm Anyone else at either?

You wait all year for something to happen, then 3 things arrive together. The lovely Night and Day Festival (in the heartlands of Roscommon, check it out) coincided with Westmeath v Cavan and @arsenalfc.bsky.social in the Champions league final. Multitasking at its finest #SpeirGorm

Sublime hoisting. First Cllr Mannion does a pirouette that wouldn't look out of place on Strictly. This move reveals two well practiced hoisters already in position to take a leg each. The entire ensemble effect completed by the addition of a party leader and small child. A classic #SpeirGorm

I just don't get this. The dubs broke hearts all over the country. No matter who they were playing the rest of the country defaulted to supporting their opposition. How can that switch into voting for their manager? #Áras2025 ##SpeirGorm

That feeling when you go into a shop to buy a birthday card and come out with a book that has you so angry you're ready to lead a revolution. Hell yes.

I was resolute in my belief that I merely tolerated the family dog. Then I found myself scooping a mangled version of him from under a car and realised he is the love of my life. Reader, he survived. I have no idea how. Now I’m making him chicken broth instead of frowning at him.
