Dublin, Ireland: Trinity College
More info about travel to Dublin: Trinity College — founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I in the center of Dublin — has long been Ireland's most prestigious college. The big draw on campus for tourists is the precious Book of Kells, a beautiful monk-decorated copy of the four Gospels from about the year 800. Trinity's Old Library is stacked to its towering ceiling with old books including a rare edition of the Proclamation of the independent Irish Republic and another national icon — Ireland's oldest surviving harp, from the 15th century. You'll see this harp's likeness everywhere — on Irish euro coins, government documents and even on the Guinness label!

National Library of Ireland - Main Reading Room (quick look)...
The Main Reading Room of the National Library of Ireland on Kildare Street in Dublin, Ireland.
It's not just a pretty ceiling - the collection of manuscripts, documents, books and microfilm is vast and freely available. Staff are also unbelievably professional, courteous, and friendly. If only more Irish institutions kicked ass like these guys. And no, I don't work for them...
