Archbishop Robinson founded this Library in the heart of the City of Armagh in 1771. His aim was to share his own collection of books and fine art with the general public. The special collections in this reference library can be available to researchers for consultation.
The collections include around 46,000 printed works, on subjects such as medicine, science, history, law, politics, theology and travel, as well as maps and atlases. The Library also holds collections of ancient and medieval coins, commemorative medals and sulphur gems, prints, atlases, and manuscripts.
