What Is The Connections Through Literature Series? The Connections Through Literature Series has been born out of a joint love of literature, with the goal to unite readers, writers, and artists with our audiences through the medium of stimulating, contemporary and accessible events. In an exciting partnership between Kildare Libraries and the Irish Writers Centre, we are celebrating our joint love of literature & 30 years of the Irish Writers Centre.

This year the series will launch on the 21st of August with a very special event and will run all the way through to December. Please keep your eyes peeled here on our blog and social media pages for more exciting event announcements.
