About the Trinity Long Room Hub

The Trinity Long Room Hub is Trinity’s research institute for the Arts and Humanities. 

Who we support

Our research community represents over twenty disciplines including the creative arts, philosophy, religion, languages, literatures, cultural studies, linguistics, history, law, education, peace studies, and classics, as well as the University Library. Collectively, these disciplines respond to the complex evolution of identity and culture; the determining effects of language, communication, and representation; and the meanings of historical and contemporary lived experience. Current institute priorities for research include democracy and resistance, cultural and literary heritage, the futures of Ireland, and human-centred approaches to technology.

What we do

For our research community

We provide support for researchers at all career stages through our fellowship and public engagement programmes, competitive funding for new projects, resources for emerging research themes and groups and for addressing new research practices and approaches, and new initiatives and platforms to showcase the impact and centrality of Arts and Humanities-led research.

For the public

We provide an inclusive programme of free public events, both in-person and online, and an extensive library of podcasts and videos.

For government, civic, cultural and enterprise sectors

We provide opportunities to connect with our community and to partner on research projects and other activities that will help shape a tolerant and inclusive society and contribute to shaping national and international research agendas.
