Glucksman Library
- Officially opened in June 2018 the Glucksman Library, part of the University of Limerick Campus, is the biggest academic library in Ireland – and one of the most digitally advanced archives in the world.
- The library is named after the Glucksman family, Lew and Loretta Glucksman, long-time supporters of the university.
- Within the library is an Automated Reserve Collection facility (ARC), a 10 metre-high vault storing over 500,000 books, operated by a robotic crane retrieval system.
- The Glucksman Library was one of seventeen venues used for the 40th EVA International Biennial in 2023, curated by Sebastian Chichocki and titled The Gleaners Society.
- In this space, film and artist collective Freefilmers presented three works, [Vasyl Lyah] Metawork, 2021, [Sashko Protyah and Oksana Kazmina] Revitalization of Space, 2018, and [Sashko Protyah] My Favorite Job, 2022. These films explore urban transformation in East Ukraine as a consequence of the full-scale invasion of Russian forces in Ukraine and the destruction of Mariupol.
