Faded posters on doors, announcing ‘Way to the old building’, guide the confused wanderer from the new library to the old Connemara Public Library. On regular days, this is the only part of the old building accessible to outsiders. Today, however, the old building will throw open its doors to the public to celebrate World Book Day. This National Book Day, pick up a book, crack its spine and breathe in the smell. Then head over the to old books at Connemara Public Library and let them take you on a journey across the pages of history.
