Our commitment is to preserve, maintain and make freely available for research purposes, policy & research from authors and health agencies on the island of Ireland to the global community.

Repository Rationale • Health services in Ireland • Diverse (130 organisations) • Knowledge intensive sector • Dissemination & availability of Irish research key to evidence-based practice’ • Grey literature important source of evidence for public health (Ogilvie, Dobbins, Franks) • No central system for collection, dissemination or preservation of Irish health literature existed.
