An Leabharlann Mo Mowlam - The Mo Mowlam Library
December 19, 2024
The Mo Mowlam Library was formally opened by His Excellency, Mr Martin Fraser, Irish Ambassador to GB, on 21 November 2024, during his visit to the Coventry Irish Society. We’re grateful to The Irish World for featuring the occasion in a recent hardcopy edition.
Our library is named after Mo Mowlam, who grew up in Coventry and who was one of the key architects of The Good Friday Agreement.
The Library is based at our office at Eaton House and is free for all current members of The Coventry Irish Society to use between Monday – Friday 10.30 am – 1.00 pm and 2.00 – 3.30 pm. Current members are entitled to borrow two books at any one time, for a period of 28 days. Please see a member of staff on-site if you would like to borrow any books and they will be happy to arrange this for you.

Light refreshments will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own food and drink too. All welcome, but advanced booking is essential please.
