Truly stunning if not a little short, the day in question the sun was beaming through the side windows which made it all the more fantastic. € 10 is steep but if it helps maintain this attraction then I was happy to contribute.

Overall: One of the things to see in Dublin.
My Opinion/​Story:
Located in Trinity College, the tour was educational, affordable, and good. It wasn’t boring and there were lots to see during the tour. The place is packed with people but you still get to see the different things they laid out for people. Quiet, serene, and old, this library housed hundreds (if not thousands) of old leather-​bound books. Contains old statues and literatures that depict Irish history. Too bad we can’t take pictures of this amazing library.

Picture it: Late 90s Dublin in July; an American teen, lately dragged through every tourist stop and local museum her parents can find, is heading for the exit from Trinity’s Book of Kells exhibit.
But wait.
Suddenly the room opens up to reveal a huge barrel ceiling and row after reaching row of ancient books. Parents forgotten, she wanders, ogles, sits. There’s peace here, quiet. The air is warm and still and bright thanks to column after column of tall uncovered windows. There’s a hint of dust and the low murmur of a few hundred tourists trying their best to be quiet.
She brings out a sketchbook and for the next twenty minutes enjoys the family trip to Ireland more than she had in days.
On your visit, give this space the time it deserves and don’t rush through to the giftshop. There’s plenty of time for tourism, this is time for you.

Trinity’s Long Library is famous for it’s enormous collection of famous, almost mythical books and houses one of the worlds oldest and most famous works of literature, The book of Ceils. Not only this, it is an extraordinary building and an architectural wonder.
Of course, I didn’t have any interest in these things. I just went to see it because it inspired George Lucas to model part of the Jedi Academy in Attack of The Clones on it. Still, pretty cool library.
Worth a look.

I had the (probably) great privilege of working here for a couple of summers. I was one of those people you see walking along the galleries at the top — where no one else can go… I can say with some confidence that it feels very old, dusty and like it’s about to collapse under the weight of the colossal amounts of very very old books.
It was lovely to look down on all the tourists and know that so very very few people will ever tread these boards again, I wish I had had the opportunity to just wander up and browse the very ancient books.

The Long Library in Trinity stores some of the oldest and rarest books in Ireland and the World. The Building itself designed in the Georgian style has some of the nicest Sache windows in Dublin and is a great example of refined classical design in Dublin. The Arcaded lower floor leads to the gift shop and museum entrance. the orinal entrance at the west end leads to a grand staircase which brings you up to the main reading room and storage area. The main hall is simply stunning. One of the finest interiors in Dublin the Long Room will take your breath away. All the books are stores in side aisles while a central nave features busts of great thinkers and philosophers.
These days the Library is the home of the Book of Kells, however it is also home for a large collection of rare books and manuscripts, the preservation of which also takes place here.
A must see for any tourist.
