New public library in Ballinasloe

The new public library in Ballinasloe has been officially opened by Galway County Cathaoirleach Peter Roche.

The building which has been in operation since last November was converted from the old Mercy Convent and Church which was bought by Galway county council almost a decade ago.

County councillor for Ballinasloe, Tim Broderick, described the new library as a breath of fresh air for town. “It’s bringing resources and people into the town to avail of the facilities that are housed within it,” said councillor Broderick.
