National Year of Reading
Wiltshire Libraries are celebrating the 2008 National Year of Reading with an exciting range of events and activities across the county between April and December.
As well as a range of events and activities which will involve pirates, daleks and fire fighters, we’ve also managed to secure some top name authors for 2008, including:
- Deborah Moggach
- Richard Holmes
- Chris Ryan
- Jeremy Strong
- Catrin Collier
- Anna Jacobs, and more
The National Year of Reading is a year long celebration of reading in all its forms – so from novels to information books, but by way of manga, blogs, film scripts, sci fi and song lyrics! Truly something for everyone.
