CBI Collection
The Children's Books Ireland collection is housed at the CBI Offices on North Great Georges Street, Dublin 1. The collection contains the majority of childrens's books published in Ireland during the last fifteen years, plus a small selection of older books. The collection includes a donation of books by Joyce Padbury.

The collection also has a small number of academic texts on Children's literature and a range of journals and magazines, including all back issues of The Children's Books in Ireland magazine and Inis.

We welcome library users, but due to the variety of some books, the collection is a reference library only and books cannot be loaned. Adult readers can consult the collection during office hours by prior appointment. Contact us to visit the collection or for any further information.
