Glucksman Map Library

Welcome to the Glucksman Map Library, the centre for cartographic materials in Trinity College Library. Located in the Basement of the Ussher Library, it holds over half a million maps and atlases making it the largest collection of printed maps in Ireland. It is one of the heritage departments of the Library, holding rare older material as well as modern mapping. The collections are particularly strong on maps of Ireland and Great Britain but they also include coverage of Europe, Africa and the rest of the world at less detailed scales.

The Map Library is available to students and staff of Trinity College Dublin during its opening hours who wish to consult cartographic materials. Visiting readers are welcome should they wish to consult maps not available elsewhere in Dublin and should contact us to arrange an appointment before their visit.
