Clare County Library’s Children’s Book Festival (CBF) in October will include limited live events, lots of online readings and storytelling activities and guaranteed fun engagement with some of Ireland’s most popular and bestselling authors.

The 2019 Children’s Book Festival, the biggest annual initiative in the children’s library programme, will feature events in all 15 Clare County Council library branches during October.

Children who recently relocated with their families to Ireland from Syria this week took part in a reading and activity session at Sixmilebridge and Ennistymon Public Libraries as part of the 2018 Children's Book Festival.
