Dean of Lismore, the Very Rev. Paul Draper joined Mary "On the Fringe," where he explained that the library houses collections that date back as far as the 16th century, and include the writings of famous chemist and Lismore native Robert Boyle.

He tells Mary that the books have been expertly preserved and that the library is a wonder to behold for adults and kids alike.
