Dublin may have Joyce and Sligo can boast Yeats, but when it comes to appreciating the written word, Waterford has the most avid bookworms in the country.
Waterford city libraries had the highest number of users per capita last year, the three branches collectively recording 6,498 visits per 1,000 of the population, almost twice the national average of 3,335.
