Dublin City Library and Archive holds a wide range of resources that can help you in researching your family history.
In recent years, many of the records that would have traditionally been accessed on microfilm and microfiche in our Reading Room have been digitised and made available by online genealogy services. Dublin City Library and Archive can provide researchers with access to these subscription sites from the research computers in the Reading Room.
The records that are now available online include Church, Civil and Census records.

Dublin City Library and Archive also holds a near-complete run of Dublin Directories dating back to 1751, which can be useful for looking up historical addresses. Our collection of historical electoral registers for the period 1937-64 can also be requested by date and by electoral district.
