Book Week Scotland – now in its tenth year – is an annual celebration of books and reading that takes place across the country. During Book Week, people of all ages and walks of life come together in libraries, schools, community venues, and workplaces to share and enjoy books and reading. They are joined in this celebration by Scotland’s authors, poets, playwrights, storytellers, and illustrators to bring a packed programme of events and projects to life.
Book Week Scotland 2021 will take place Monday 15 to Sunday 21 November.
