The My Open Library service offers extended opening hours by providing library access to members from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days per week, 365 days of the year. My Open Library is an unstaffed, self-service library, outside of regular opening hours. With My Open Library you can borrow and return items, print, photocopy, use the Internet, access Wifi and use our study space. Please note that there will be no library staff present. Members must be able to study independently without the need for supervision, use the IT equipment and comply with the terms and conditions of use.

To access My Open Library you must register in person at the library, and you must take part in an induction. The induction will point out the self-services available during unstaffed hours, and will demonstrate the safety procedures in place. Call to the library to find out more.

A social story provides a social learning tool for people of all ages with additional needs, learning difficulties and those on the Autism Spectrum. They are short descriptions of a particular situation, event or activity, which include specific information about what to expect in that situation and why.

The initiative expands on the current resources available, such as sensory places, sensory toys and quiet time, and plays a role in making County Tipperary an autism friendly place. Click on the text below to view or download:
