FOR SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES
The Schools Project
This scheme
offers an excellent opportunity for teachers and librarians
to keep up-to-date with the latest Welsh-language and
Welsh-interest books and resources to support the National
Curriculum.
How does the scheme work?
Field Officers
Four officers
visit schools throughout Wales in order to exhibit books
and educational resources and to collect orders. Three
officers work in the primary sector and one in the secondary.
These exhibitions provide teachers with an excellent opportunity
to browse through the books as well as receiving advice
and help from experienced officers.
It is also possible to search for information on all the
books available on the Welsh Books Council’s website
www.gwales.com on
the officers’ laptops. Orders are taken by computer
and are processed through the school’s choice of
local bookshop.
Officers also visit libraries, and arrange exhibitions
at conferences and courses.
In order to arrange a visit, or for further information
on the scheme, please contact Lila Piette, Schools Liaison

Information Packs
Every term,
a comprehensive information pack is sent to all schools
in Wales – each pack contains colourful posters,
information leaflets on books, and Meet the Author leaflets
which give useful and interesting information on authors
who write in Welsh, or in English about Wales, as well
as leaflets from publishers giving information about forthcoming
publications.
