Children’s Books Ireland Book Clinic | We Act

Are you a young reader looking for a new book to delve into? Feeling uninspired by your bookshelves at home? Then drop into the Children’s Books Ireland Book Clinic!

Celebrating the Children's Books Ireland Collection at DCU library, young readers are invited to meet a friendly Book Doctor. After a short chat about books, movies, TV shows and video games the young reader enjoys, the Book Doctor writes a book prescription, a recommended list of books personalised for the individual patient that they can take to their local library or bookshop.
The Children’s Books Ireland collection is an extensive collection of children's books by Irish authors and illustrators and those who have made their home on this island. It is a significant collection in terms of the cultural life of the nation and comprises thousands of titles in both the English and Irish languages, dating back to the 1900s.
