THE ROYAL IRISH ACADEMY IS IRELAND'S LEADING BODY OF EXPERTS IN THE SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES

The Royal Irish Academy/Acadamh Ríoga na hÉireann champions research. We identify and recognise Ireland’s world class researchers. We support scholarship and promote awareness of how science and the humanities enrich our lives and benefit society. We believe that good research needs to be promoted, sustained and communicated. The Academy is run by a Council of its members. Membership is by election and considered the highest academic honour in Ireland.

Did you know that many of our books are available in digital format? Here’s the list.

The past few weeks have been a challenge for everybody. While the Academy is closed, we are unable to fulfil your online book orders. We thought we’d remind you that many of our publications are available in digital format. Some of our books can be read online, some are Open Access and available to download free of charge, and some can be purchased in eBook format. The titles below can be accessed either through JSTOR via your institution or library, or in our collections on the Digital Repository of Ireland. We hope this will help keep you busy, informed and engaged until things get back to normal.
