rint book fair in the country and usually has twenty-five to thirty stands with booksellers from all over Ireland displaying books on every subject under the sun and at prices to suit every pocket. Whether you're a collector, a connoisseur of fine bindings, a student or just someone who's looking for another book to read, you'll be fairly sure of finding something to interest you here - and if the book you're after is not in the room on the day, you can be fairly certain that the dealers there will move heaven and earth to get it for you (many of them have books buried at home, and will willingly dig them up on request). Admission is €2.00 and accompanied children are admitted free of charge.
