Museums Collections Archives

The Local Authority Museums Network dataset created by the Heritage Council.This dataset maps, and provides details for, the Local Authority-run County museums across Ireland.

The Heritage Council’s main commitment to collections care comes through its support of the Museum Standards Programme for Ireland (MSPI). This important initiative, with participants from a wide range of Irish collecting institutions, sets out to raise standards of care across Irish museums and galleries. This programme sets out to improve all aspects of Ireland’s museum practice. This dataset provides information on participants in this programme.

This dataset displays the UNESCO World Heritage sites and Geoparks across the island of Ireland.

This dataset pinpoints national monuments around the country which are accessible to the public. The national monuments mapped on the website feature those at which the Office of Public Works maintain visitor services (for which there may be a charge) and those which have no formal visitor services on-site but which are accessible to the public.

The aim of this survey was to obtain a general overview of the maritime-related collections in Ireland, to ascertain the location, ownership, condition, overall theme, and nature of the contents of each collection. It is neither an inventory nor a full evaluation of the collections, and is in no way intended to criticize either the collections or their custodians.
