Sensory Services in Louth Libraries

Magic Table

Louth Libraries provides access to The Magic Table, an interactive projector equipped with games & mindfulness exercises specifically designed for people with care needs and works to stimulate movement, create a shared experience and enhance emotional well-being. The Magic Table is currently available to use in Dundalk, Drogheda and Ardee libraries. Please contact branches for further details.

Room for All

Situated in Dundalk Library, the Room for All is a room within a room created using custom-made curtains, allowing us to provide unrestricted access to our Magic Table. The Room for All is available at all times during opening hours and is fully wheelchair accessible. The Room for All provides privacy and decreased sensory stimuli by blocking out light and providing an element of sound-proofing. For more information contact Dundalk Library.

Sensory Area

We have interactive sensory areas equipped with sensory walls, toys and flooring located in Dundalk, Drogheda & Ardee libraries available for all to avail of.

The Cubbie

Dundalk Library has an amazing sensory feature, "The Cubbie". It is an immersive multi-sensory space that helps regulate sensory stress, reduces anxiety, and encourages participation through professionally designed programs in less than 15 minutes and was purchased as part of the Varcities - Green Cities are Healthier Cities EU funded Horizon 2020 project. Ask a member of staff at the desk on your next visit about using this amazing sensory space, available completely FREE to all who need it.
