I have only just discovered that Scotland has a national library for women in Scotland.I am astonished as I feel it is a very well hidden secret.I feel you should publicise your existence,especially your events and exhibitions to areas and groups outside Glasgow.For example…send info to the Dumfries U.3.A.,Loreburn Retirement Group in Dumfries,The Midsteeple Dumfries-noticeboard.Generally women outside of Glasgow do not know about this public facility.
Hi Anne! Thanks for your comments. We’re always trying hard to publicise ourselves but we do indeed find that lots of people are still to discover us. We don’t generally send out our programme due to the costs involved but you can download a copy of our next programme from 1st February from this website. We also run a National project that tours events round the country – you can find out more here: https://womenslibrary.org.uk/about-us/our-projects/national-lifelong-learning/
