About Authors Aloud UK

Authors Aloud UK will streamline the whole process of booking a guest for your event by handling all the set up arrangements as well as providing you with detailed background information on your guest and guidelines on running a successful event.

Meeting an author, illustrator, poet or storyteller in real life or virtually and hearing them convey their passion for their work can fundamentally alter a child or young person’s relationship to books and ignite a life-long love of reading. An author visit can encourage schools to develop policies to promote reading for enjoyment.

Authors Aloud UK have proudly partnered with or sponsored the Pupil Library Assistant Award since its inception. Read about why the Award is so important to them here.
