The Library space on Level 1 can be used for small events and presentations where appropriate. Previous events include World Book Day author talks, lunchtime talks, Library inductions, and panel discussions. We are happy to discuss using the Library space for an event, but please note the event must not detract from other students use of the Library space. Library space is also not available for timetabled classes and during busy times close to exams.

To discuss booking the Library space please fill in the enquiry form below or visit us in the Library on Level 1 to discuss options.

    IADT passwords need to be reset every 90 days, even if they still work for email or the Hub. Also, if you see a "username cannot be identified" error, it’s usually just an expired password - resetting it, clearing browser cookies, and avoiding autofill should fix the issue. Click here for the ICT FAQs page which has instructions, or email ictsupport@iadt.ie.
