Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow Lynnsey Weissenberger will be representing ITMA at EuropeanaTech 2018. This gathering of researchers, academics, and other industry professionals is an opportunity to share and discuss LITMUS (Linked Irish Traditional Music), ITMA's pioneering project in linked data.

In 2014, ITMA partnered with Europeana Sounds. As part of a €6.14-million project that ran over three years, libraries and archives from all over Europe worked together to make more than 1,000,000 sound records and sound-related objects freely available online. Some of the recordings that ITMA provided are now appearing in blogs associated with that project.

ITMA is closed on Good Friday (March 30) and Easter Monday (April 2).

The Irish Traditional Music Archive greatly regrets the recent deaths of three of its former board members: Finbar Boyle, Garech Browne, and Liam O’Flynn. All three made important and enduring contributions to Irish traditional music, contributions of different kinds. The board and staff of ITMA extend their sympathies to the families, friends, and colleagues of each.

ITMA announces the appointment of three new board members: Áine Hensey, Lillis Ó Laoire, and Úna Monaghan.

From the 9–13 April 2018, ITMA will close to the public to facilitate stock taking and cleaning the library collection.

With more than 25,000 books in our library, there's no better place to explore a world of information, art, and music than ITMA. 

Due to the status red weather alert, ITMA will remain closed today Wednesday 28 February 2018 through to Thursday 1 March 2018. Updates on re-opening will be available here and on ITMA social media. 

ITMA is delighted to announce that Brian Montague has been selected as its new chairperson. Brian replaces Dermot McLaughlin, who has stepped down from the board after nine years of service.
