Limerick Archives

[2] Digital Collections: In 2008 Limerick City became the first locality in Ireland to make its archives available online.

[5] This was a part of a number of projects under the Decade of Commemorations programme for Limerick City and County Council.

In collaboration with Mary Immaculate College about 70,000 burials were transcribed and a database was launched in August 2013.

[10][11] In April 2014, an international conference on death and burial called Beyond the Grave was organised by Limerick Archives and Mary Immaculate College[12] to coincide with the launch of the Mount Saint Lawrence grave marker database.

This was the first exhibition of the Limerick City of Culture 2014 calendar, it was launched by the then Minister for Arts, Jimmy Deenihan.

The exhibition began in March 2014 and was shown in various secular and non-secular venues throughout the city.

[17] In September 2014 the exhibition was moved into City Hall, Merchant's Quay, Limerick to coincide with the launch of the archive database.
