    Chesterby Library is one of the most famous libraries in Ireland. This library has a lot of important literature and books. When we went, we happened to meet the Daming Cultural Exhibition in China, showing many documents and printed versions of famous works in China's Ming Dynasty. It's worth watching.

    This library has a large collection of Sir Evo de Chesterbite, a mining tycoon. The size of the library is not very large, but the three floors are no less than those I have seen. The collection of the main highlights of the exhibits covers a basic range of handwritten prints from Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, miniaturization of Orthodox holy journals and early printed books and arts. Artworks are very precious and rare.

    Chester & Biti has a rich collection of handbooks, prints, Orthodox saints, miniatures, early printed books and works of art from Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. These collections are from one person's collection. Egyptian papyrus articles, brilliant pictures of the Koran, the Bible, European manuscripts of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, etc., are among the most wonderful collections. Turkish and Persian micro-sculptures, eye-catching Buddhist paintings, and Chinese dragon robes and Japanese wood prints are also on display. Its extensive collection reflects the rich creation of human beings since 2700 BC. These collections were presented to the public by Sir Ivord Chester Beattie, an American miner. Sir Beatty is a great collector. He retired in 1950 and went to Ireland. He lived in Dublin for a long time and died in 1968. The library became a public charity trust in 1969. The library moved to Dublin Castle on 11 September 1999. Its main exhibition hall is located in a modern building near the middle of the castle. The Bell Tower is an eighteenth century building, which was renovated and redesigned in the late nineties to be used by Chester & Bi for the library. The library has the following facilities: exhibition hall, reading room, educational and outreach programs, as well as various services for experts, scholars and researchers.
