More Irish OS maps can be found on the Ordnance Survey of Ireland (Tailte Eireann) website at:

Although this version might be easier:

The National Library of Ireland brings you to the same place. As a copyright library they should a full set of mapping but presumably don't see any point in duplicating the digital offering.
