The Very Revd Gregory Dunstan, Keeper of Armagh Public Library, said, \u201cAlthough founded by Archbishop Robinson, the Library is, in fact an independent body, established by Act of the Irish Parliament in 1772-73. We are here to foster scholarship, and it is always a pleasure to welcome the Church of Ireland Historical Society for its spring meeting.\u201d<\/p>\n
