The Love Leabhar Gaeilge scheme operates through independent bookstores and libraries and each season we promote a new collection of both children and adult Irish books through scheduled marketing campaigns and participants of the scheme get additional online exposure on our social media platforms, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
As 2018 celebrates Bliain na Gaeilge an international yearlong celebration of the Irish language both nationally and internationally Love Leabhar Gaeilge looks forward to scheduling events nationwide with participating shops and libraries.
I encourage you to visit our website and see what Irish titles we’re currently promoting and why not follow us on our social media platforms to keep upated on all events.
