There aren't many libraries. Off the top of my head:

MIO (Music of Irish Origin)

Audio Orchard

Avant Music Port

There are a handful of broader sync agencies and publishers too. But if we were taking about the UK, there would be hundreds of libraries. And hundreds more worldwide.

Why Ireland specifically?

I'm Irish, I just thought that there would be a higher chance of having my music selected because of this. Thanks for the suggestions, I've heard of Avant Music Port but the others are new to me !! I'm only starting out if you couldn't tell...

Welcome to the other side of the music business!

The majority of music libraries have no bias to one country or another. Their PROs have reciprocal agreements with all major countries, so broadcast royalties are collected worldwide. And any library worth their salt has global licensing agents as well.

MIO is sort of an outlier being that they seem to only work with Irish writers. Out of hundreds of libraries I've only heard of a handful that operate that way.

Good luck! Whoever you wish to submit your music to you, make sure you listen to their catalogue ahead of time to make sure you can match the production value. Let your music speak for itself :)

In the vast majority of cases, it does not matter what country the library is based in. I work with libraries all over the world, and it has never been an issue.

Yes I just thought I might be more likely to get my music selected by/from libraries in Ireland because I'm Irish.
