for many years to come.  The library, and indeed the University, already has a close relationship with local schools so when it was time to move them on, the school was a natural home for them."  Marie Mannion, IT Co-ordinator within Maynooth Post Primary school, said "the school is delighted to accept this generous donation.  The school has developed significantly in recent years and one of the important areas of growth has been the ever-increasing importance of computers.  These laptops will be very useful and all the more so because they are small and flexible." John McGinnity, Assistant Registrar and Admissions Officer NUI Maynooth, said "This donation is another example of the University making a positive contribution to the local community.  A key strategic objective of the University is for us to play our part as a national and international centre of educational and cultural excellence in Maynooth and indeed in the Kildare and Leinster region."
