It’s official – Westmeath people love their libraries. With 296,732 visitors across the county in 2024 and over 20,000 of these happening during My Open Library hours, the public haven has never been more popular.
This year, Athlone, Castlepollard, Moate and Mullingar will be re-joined by the renovated Kilbeggan library and a new library in Kinnegad.
