On October 8th 2013 MIC Thurles (then St. Pats.) Student Library was renamed in honour of our former Librarian Fr. Christy O’Dwyer. He spent 32 years with St. Pats, 19 of these as Librarian and it was only fitting that we named our Library after him and kept his legacy going. @micireland.bsky.social
