A Guide to Carlow Local Studies
People & Place
A Guide to Carlow Local Studies was launched in March 2011. Staff in Local Studies had noticed that people frequently sought guidance in choosing local topics of study and in the planning of their essays, reports or theses. This guide is available free of charge online or in hard copy in any of our libraries around County Carlow. It encourages to “think outside the box” and to plan different approaches to local topics. It enables the person to brainstorm effectively in the preparatory stages of research.
In this guide you will be directed to a number of topic based pages, study or interest based pages or research pages.
Topic based pages can be found under the following headings:
- Architecture and Streetscapes
- Castles and Monuments
- Education
- Famous Carlow People
- Industry and Business
- Sport in County Carlow
- Transport in County Carlow
- Towns and Villages
