For the Love of Books
By North Lanarkshire Libraries
For the Love of Books is the official podcast from North Lanarkshire Libraries. Each episode contains bookish chat from library staff and special guests. You can discover new reads to check out in the library, more about current and forthcoming library events as well as enjoy fellow book lovers just talking books. Author interviews appear regularly too, giving you a chance to discover more about the books than just the words and covers.
Watch out for our Bea’s Books Edition episodes as well where you will find great book recommendations on specific themes. Go beyond the podcast with #FLBpodcast and #BeasBooks on social media too.
