Book Online

Research

King’s Inns Library may be accessed for research purposes by suitably qualified members of the academic community who have been granted the necessary permission and by prior appointment only. Some of the material held by the Library is fragile and regulations for researchers must be adhered to.

Library staff are happy to assist with genealogical queries about past members of the Society. However these requests must be received in writing and, as our priority is our current students, these enquiries may only be dealt with outside of the academic term.
