Following our institution's lead, we'll no longer be active on here from the end of the semester. We've loved the community we've built with you here - so let's not lose it! Follow us on over to bluesky, where we hope to grow our community even more! @miclibraries.bsky.social

It's Sam's last post! To wrap up a year of Student Takeovers, here's a Book and a Song of the Week! Read one of the greatest superhero comics ever - 'Invincible'! Or listen to the series soundtrack with the song 'Feel It' by D4VD. #miclibraries #studenttakeover #farewell

Don't forget! Return or renew your books by the end of the semester and avoid late fees. We have returns boxes in the foundation building in Limerick and outside both MIC libraries, as well as the self-service machines and service desks. #miclibraries #examseason #return #renew

It's that time of year again! Remember the basics; eat well & stay hydrated. Less Monster juice more water! Try to get into a routine that works for you; make a Study Timetable, condense notes. Get some daily exercise & proper sleep! @miclibraries @maryisu @MICLimerick

All of us here at MIC Libraries would like to wish everyone sitting (and giving) exams the best of luck! #examseason #miclibraries #goodluck #miclimericklibrary #micthurleslibrary #miclimerick #micthurles

Sam's been reading 'For Whom The Bell Tolls' by Ernest Hemingway. It follows a dynamiter in the Spanish Civil War as he experiences fear, courage, love, loss, and the best and worst of humanity. An unputdownable classic. #miclibraries #studenttakeover #hemingway #belltolls

When the weather is this good, it's important to stay hydrated! There's a water fountain located in the Library Building foyer in Limerick - just up the stairs and to the right. Simply put the bottle on the stand in front of the sensor. #miclimerick #libbuilding #waterfountain

Great case study from Jennifer O’Grady & Catherine Gleeson for MIC—smart, strategic, and seriously inspiring insights into social media engagement. #LIRSeminar2025

@LIRHEAnet Perfectly timed photo of Jen to match her brilliant TikTok.

'Blood Meridian' by Cormac McCarthy - this story follows a teenage runaway in the mid-1800s while violence engulfs the American South. Considered one of the greatest 20th c. novels, this book is not for the faint hearted! #miclibraries #studenttakeover #bloodmeridian

The new Library/Learning Centre at MIC Limerick has taken a key step forward with the appointment of two eminent firms to lead the architecture, design and project and cost management elements of the development. Read more about it here: mic.ul.ie/news/2025/new-…
