As I said in my original response, this venue is held under licence for ten years from 27 November 2017. No time has been lost. The official opening will take place on 4 July next. The exhibition, which will be free for everyone, will run for between three and five years. It is the aspiration of the National Library of Ireland that the exhibition will move permanently to the library's historic building on Kildare Street at the end of that period. It will take its place there alongside the award-winning exhibition dedicated to W.B. Yeats. This will bring two of Ireland's greatest writers together in a library they both loved. The Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht has given the National Library of Ireland an additional capital grant of €615,000 towards the cost of designing and building the exhibition. The Bank of Ireland has generously provided the space in College Green and will contribute towards the cost of running the centre.
