A little hidden gem near the palace. Nice and quiet, modern yet cozy, the exterior private patio will have you at hello.
First poetry library I've ever visited, but it is fantastic! Great events, atmosphere, and people! And best of all, the collection is giant!
Beautiful building . In response. I didn't stay long as I didn't feel welcome to be there. A smile or a greeting would have been nice.
I had the pleasure of visiting here for the first time during the Fringe, which is shocking being a resident and literature graduate. I was impressed by the interior - a nice, homely feel to it with a degree of class in the beautiful wooden designs. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and it was nice to see the poetry and stories from Edinburgh children on display - it shows they care about the community. Coffee and tea was a bit expensive, but it doesn't detract from what the library has to offer.
One of the most beautiful buildings in Edinburgh. I might have to stop going there though because I can never resist their shop and I always leave with at least a couple of new pamphlets or collections...
Do you like poetry? Even a little bit? Then you should be heading down here. A beautiful, bright space crammed with books, each one a gateway into a world of words. The staff are all friendly and more than happy to help you find what you need, and it's a wonderfully tranquil place to sit and read. There are regularly events held here, whether poetry readings, social gatherings, or workshops - you can find out what's happening on their website. The network of people who come to such events are a delight in themselves, being writers or just fans of the written word. If you do pop in you can also see some of the famous paper sculptures that have been anonymously left with various institutions around Edinburgh over the last few years!
Brilliant resource for the city, set in fantastic architecture. The mini-amphitheatre for outdoor readings is a great idea. The children's poetry area is well stocked. The use of the original historic walls in the design makes the building really work architecturally: bridging from the historic architecture to the modern.
