Edinburgh Bid To Open First Scots Literary Quarter

Book2Book Thursday 09 Apr 2015

A multi-million bid to create Scotland's first official literature quarter has been launched to mark the ten years since Edinburgh was honoured as a global culture capital.
A stretch of the Royal Mile would be given official status in recognition of centuries of publishing heritage in the area and the number of literary organisations based there.
