National Library of Ireland - Interpretation and Design

National Library of Ireland

The NLI are currently engaged in a major development programme, which is the largest capital investment in the NLI since the opening of our iconic central Dublin buildings in 1890. We are excited to be embarking on the next phase, the creation of a new free public cultural space in the heart of Dublin city centre. The 'West Wing' part of the building will be conserved and transformed into an exciting and engaging space with universal access for all visitors to explore multiple exhibition floors, a dedicated education space, shop and cafรฉ. The NLI, working with our partners in the Office of Public Works (OPW), wish to develop a visitor experience concept for the fully restored West Wing building. We have a requirement to appoint a specialist supplier to deliver interpretation, exhibition design and fit out services to deliver on this concept.
