One Dublin One Book 2025: Dublin, written in our hearts
11 March 2025
One Dublin One Book aims to encourage everyone in Dublin to read a book connected with the capital city during the month of April every year. This annual project is a Dublin City Council initiative, led by Dublin City Libraries and Dublin UNESCO City of Literature, which encourages reading for pleasure.
Being able to read is no doubt an important life skill. Reading is seen as a valuable activity, as something that is good for your child. And it is! But like with anything that is beneficial to our children, we parents tend to, consciously or unconsciously, put ourselves under pressure to “get it right”.
Dublin City Libraries launched a Children’s Literacy Project in Croke Park in cooperation with the Dublin GAA County Board for 6th class children from schools in the Dublin City Council area.
Era Books Online offers access to hundreds of educational books, exercises and learning guides to support the development of English literacy for children.
Dublin City Libraries is delighted to partner with the Irish Deaf Society in the ISL StorySign Project, a national project to produce filmed stories for children, signed in Irish Sign Language.
As part of Creative Ireland's Cruinniú na Óg programme, we are delighted to have this online workshop "An introduction to anime style drawing" with illustrator Amy Louise O'Callaghan.
