    The Allen Library, Nth. Richmond Street, Dublin 1 holds material relating to the history of modern Ireland, mainly focusing on the years 1916-1922, although it also holds earlier and later material.
    Today the archival collection includes papers and photographs of prominent people such as Dr Kathleen Lynn, Madeline ffrench Mullen, Alice Milligan,
    Áine Ceannt, Grace Plunkett, Constance Markievicz, Daniel O’Connell, Seán T.
    O’Ceallaigh, Éamonn Ceannt, Patrick Pearse, Frank Flood, Roger Casement and
    Robert Monteith. As part of a new outreach initiative the Allen Library is
    looking for the public to help in identifying some images from the
    collection.
    In order to do this we will be displaying a number of photographs on our
    new Flickr page at http://www.flickr.com/photos/allenlibrary/
    Rather than describing for example a photograph of an unknown Irish
    Volunteer it is hoped that the public will be able to assist in identifying that
    particular Irish Volunteer.
