The Future of Poetry Libraries
This event on 15th June 2022 at 16:00 has past.
As part of Manchester Festival of Libraries 2022, We are delighted to welcome representatives from Sims Library (Los Angeles) and the Scottish Poetry Library (Edinburgh) as well as other special guests. The discussion will be led by Dr Ben Gwalchmai, poet and Lecturer in Extended Realities with the School of Digital Arts at Manchester Metropolitan University and who is currently developing the Welsh poetry library project.
It is an exciting time for a new library to be planned. However many organisations have also suffered under the pandemic as well as being affected by the climate emergency. This discussion offers the opportunity for poetry libraries, writer’s houses, archives and other organisations and individuals to connect, to think about the possibilities and challenges of the future, and the kind of resilience that will be demanded from us.
