National Library of Scotland
A large Library-themed snakes and ladders gameboard.

This Doors Open Day drop-in to our Causewayside building to try out our library games and activities for all ages.

Can you assemble our mosaic map of Scotland? Or avoid the book-weight snakes to be first to complete our Library Snakes and Ladders game?

A display of historic maps of the local area will be available to view in the Maps Reading Room.
