We'll never look at The Peace Campus the same way again after today's tour with Engineer Declan McKenna! So much planning, construction and design in this masterpiece of a building. A rooftop view over Monaghan was the cherry on the cake 🍰.

Another wonderful podcast from James @UrbleshannyNS Everyday spent in the library is a good day. Although I’m not certain @MonaghanTownLib can afford another floor dedicated to James’ favourite genre just yet! 📚
