Cló Iar-Chonnacht publishes Irish-language books and Irish traditional music. We offer an extensive range of Irish-language books and traditional albums for sale on our website and our shop in Connemara. Cló Iar-Chonnacht (CIC) was founded in 1985, and since then we have published over 300 books and 150 music albums. Among the most productive publishing houses in the country, CIC employs five people full-time in our offices in Inverin, Connemara. We are the largest private Irish language publishing company in Ireland.

CIC sees itself primarily as guardian and patron of Irish language and Gaeltacht culture. We understand the great value of this culture, and the importance of protecting and fostering it. Our aim is to encourage and support our musicians and writers, and to help to bring their arts to a national audience.
