National Library of Scotland
A selection of maps and Football World Cup posters.

Library members are invited to join us for a viewing of historical football World Cup maps and posters from our collections.

'Members Connect' is a series of informal events for Library members to connect with each other through the Library’s collections, people, and spaces.

Each session focuses on a different theme, exploring the Library through collection highlights and behind-the-scenes insights, with opportunities for activities and conversations.

These sessions invite you to meet fellow members, get to know the Library, and come together as a community.

Tea and coffee will be provided.

These events are for Library members. Not yet a member? It is free to join. Please register as a member before booking.
