    "Leabarlan na Catrac Áta Cliat" in old speak.

    That'd be "Leabharlann na Cathrach Átha Cliath" in standardised Irish in modern font.

    City Library of Dublin would be the translation. :)

    Actually, "Dublin City Library" would probably be more exact.

    The literal translation, word-for-word, is Library of the City of Dublin.

    Thanks again.

    We've been trying to translate it today but had no real luck with it, need to brush up on the Irish!
