Former Kilkenny city library opens doors this evening to showcase plans for its future

The former Kilkenny city library will throw open its doors this evening to showcase proposals for its future. 

The Carnegie building on the quays is a much-loved structure and many have wondered what’s to become of it since the purpose-built Mayfair Library opened in 2024.

Now, the plans for it and the surrounding public realm can be viewed at a drop-in event this evening from 5:30pm to 8pm.

The refurbishment project is co-funded by the Government and the European Union through the ERDF Southern, Eastern and Midland Regional Programme (2021-2027)
