Askaboutireland.ie is a resource to help readers answer any questions they may have about the country of Ireland, its culture and history. It is not only a great resource for potential visitors, but natives wishing to learn a little more about their home country. Ask About Ireland was put together by Irish scholars, teachers, museum curators and librarians. It combines many different informational items of general interest to the public. Topics covered range from sports to writing to local geography. The website is meant to serve as a sort of preview of the type of information that is available in person at libraries all over the country. In the Reading Room at askaboutireland.ie, you can enter any keyword of interest and return a list of search results on your topic. Results include relevant news articles, photographs and videos, as well as more details about physical attractions on the topic in Ireland.
The Learning Zone section of askaboutireland.ie is geared toward children. Kids can choose their learning level, between primary and secondary, to find age appropriate material. Resources here include reading assignments, interactive games and multimedia. Kids can even choose what they want to learn about by subject, such as history, language or art. Askaboutireland.ie keeps a comprehensive list of all the libraries, museums and archives in the country. It’s a great starting point for anyone seeking information on Ireland’s history. There are also several pilot projects for people who want to get involved. Ask About Ireland is always looking for new volunteers to help with the archiving and uploading of information.
