We’re remembering artist Jack B. Yeats today, on the anniversary of his birth. We're lucky to have a large collection of his paintings in our collection, including The Liffey Swim. Don't miss visiting our dedicated Yeats Room the next time you visit; admission free.

With the Trump-Putin summit, there were many important news stories yesterday, including VJ-Day, the Princess Royal's birthday, but lost in the background was Op. DRAGOON, the hugely important invasion of Southern France on 15 August 1944.

5 August 1984. Richard Burton died (aged 58). He’s noted for his mellifluous voice, his heavy drinking and his highly publicised marriages to Elizabeth Taylor which all tended to overshadow his excellent acting ability.

The main street in our capital city is named after him but Daniel O’Connell has become a neglected figure in Irish history. Prof Patrick Geoghegan, Director of the Trinity Long Room Hub discusses the life & legacy of the Liberator, 250 years after his birth. #OConnell250
