The very first Book Week Scotland is now over. It has been by all accounts a hugely successful week. We would like to say thank you to everyone who got involved. We hope you enjoyed it.
I would be very grateful if you could take 5 minutes to complete the following survey about your experience of Book Week Scotland at school, before Friday 14th December.
This will help us to assess the wider impact of Book Week Scotland and make improvements if we run it next year (hopefully!).
Once again, a big thank you from Scottish Book Trust for all your involvement, hard work and enthusiasm!
