Our silver themed party goers will be treated to a host of very special guests gathered for a landmark anniversary celebrating 25 years of Glasgow Women's Library.
On the weekend of our 25th Anniversary (and 10 years after the inauguration of GWL’s pioneering women’s history walks) we launch a new walk looking at women who made history in the Gorbals.
Rediscover the joy of being read to as we explore tales of love, longing and what it is to be human, by the best women writers world-wide. This year Banned Books Week will be shining a spotlight on diversity. Drawing on the wealth of writers on our bookshelves and gems in our Archives, we'll be championing diverse voices and viewpoints to consider why marginalised authors are more likely to be censored.
