Families across Donegal are being encouraged to make reading a part of their lives

My Little Library Book Bag free to all children from any branch of Donegal County Library

To encourage families to make reading a part of their lives, the ‘My Little Library Book Bag’ is available for FREE to all children starting primary school this year from any branch of Donegal County Library.

Irish and English Language book bags are available. Parents, guardians and especially children are also encouraged to join the library when they visit.

When you join the library you will also be able to benefit from the following:

  • Free membership!
  • Free access to high-quality books from any public library in Ireland that you can borrow and bring home with you!
  • Free online child focused resources such as LOTE4Kids which allow children to enjoy books in languages other than English.
  • No fines for late returns!
  • Free regular reading and storytelling events and festivals throughout the year!

My Little Library is run in association with the Local Government Management Agency and delivered by local authorities. It is a collaboration between the Department of Children, Disability and Equality, the Department of Rural and Community Development, and Local Government Ireland.

For more information on this and other library events visit www.donegalculture.ie or follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

Keep an eye on our social media for a host of free events for families and schools which will be taking place as part of Wainfest, our festival of arts for children in October.

These will all be announced soon!
