Book Week Scotland 2024
Book Week Scotland 2024 is an annual celebration of reading which takes place from 18- 24 November throughout Scotland. It is a way of bringing together people of all ages and from all walks of life to celebrate the joy of books and reading.
There are many events and activities taking place across the country to celebrate the power of reading. And look how it can change lives. Many of Scotland’s authors, poets, playwrights, storytellers and illustrators participate in events and activities, bringing them to life for so many people. You can find out more about these events on the Scottish Book Trust website. You can also follow on social media via Facebook, X and LinkedIn.
The theme of Book Week Scotland 2024 is Hope. People from across Scotland are invited to share their stories, all of which are available to read on the Scottish Book Trust website along with stories from previous years’ themes including Adventure, Scotland’s Stories, Celebration, Future and others. A selection of these short stories are published in a free book issued specially for Book Week Scotland every year. The books are widely distributed at venues throughout Scotland. Free copies of the book are available to students and staff from each of our campus libraries and student accommodation buildings so be sure to collect your copy before they are none left!
Happy reading!
