The Trinity Long Room Hub – Capital Phase
Trinity College’s Arts & Humanities Research Institute
The Trinity Long Room Hub, encompassing the Library and seven academic schools, promotes advanced research with a focus to become a world reference point in the Arts and Humanities.
The new Long Room Hub building, with a prime location on Fellows Square, will have approximately 2 million people passing by annually. The building was completed in April 2010.
Total funds required is €7.2m with €6.4m raised to date. Naming opportunities exist for the building itself, lecture theatres, seminar and visiting fellows rooms (available on request).
Twelve stipendiary Visiting Research Fellowships and a one year Post-doctoral Research Fellow position have been awarded to world-class researchers for the academic year 2010 – 2011 (160 applications received). Trinity are grateful to the alumni of the University of Dublin US Fund for funding the Post-doctoral Research Fellowship. Trinity Long Room Hub operates a busy programme of public events and seminars throughout the year. Trinity
Week 2010 -“Ideas for the Future” - was a celebration of the Arts and Humanities with the Hub hosting a week of engaging lectures and family events.
