The library formerly known as the Berkeley was denamed in April 2023.
Following the de-naming of the Library, the Trinity Legacies Review Working Group (TLRWG) made a public call for suggestions for a new name for the building and its collections.
Between 15th November 2023 and 18th February 2024, over 850 submissions were received by the working group consisting of names of people, places, dates, and concepts which could be linked to Trinity College Dublin and its values of being “Inquisitive, Pioneering, Responsible, Inclusive, and Collaborative”.
The full list of submitted names, and the reasoning behind them, may be found at the link below.
