Ireland Reads is back for February 2025!
Local Libraries, Children’s Books Ireland, Age Friendly Ireland, Adult Literacy for Life, NALA and others are partnering once again to get the whole country reading this month in the lead up to Ireland Reads Day on Saturday, 22nd of February.
‘Get lost in a good book’ during February or on Ireland Reads Day itself, February 22. Ireland Reads is like a couch to 5k for books. It’s all about celebrating reading, whether that’s reading a book, a newspaper, a comic – whatever grabs your interest!
We would love if schools, teachers, parents and students would get involved and spread the word!
Here’s how you can get involved
Visit www.irelandreads.ie, where you or your class can:
Get some reading inspiration – simply enter the type of book you like best, how long you have available to read each day and the website will suggest a book and tell you how long it will take to read it.
Visit your library during February or on Ireland Reads Day All over the country, libraries will be holding events and activities in support of Ireland Reads.
Libraries have lots planned for all ages during February and on Saturday, February 22 for Ireland Reads Day.
