It’s always great for us when a class has lots of questions to ask about the collections, and P6/7 from Cornhill Primary School were full of curiosity about the rare books and archives when they visited us yesterday to do our This Book Belongs To … workshop. They learnt about some of the different types of books we have here in the Special Collections, and visited the stores to find out how we look after them. Then it was down to making book plates to take back to school …
Next week we’ve got a busy week of This Book Belongs To … workshops for the first ever Book Week Scotland. There are still three slots available during the week, so if you’d like to bring your class to visit, get in touch with us at scc.learning@abdn.ac.uk.
