ARA Ireland Niamh Ní Charra University of Galway Library Archives Mary Robinson Centre ARA UK+I Conference Archives and Records Association (UK & Ireland) Niamh's presentation was excellent. The archive sounds tremendous and while I knew Mary Robinson was exceptional, I didn't realise the extent to which she has had such a positive impact on human rights, especially for women and girls. Just brilliant work. #archives
