High Road to Reading brings authors to public libraries across Victoria for readings, talks and workshops. Literary fiction, crime, romance, poetry, memoir, young adult novels, children's books – whatever your reading passion, you'll find an event to entertain and inspire you.
The program will run for three years from 2012 to 2014 with author tours taking place in April, May and June. All Victorian public library services have the opportunity to participate.
High Road to Reading is part of the National Year of Reading. It's funded by the State Library of Victoria and delivered in partnership with Public Libraries Victoria Network. Additional funding is provided through a grant from Copyright Agency Limited.
In 2012, ten library services across Victoria delivered 55 author events to over 2800 enthusiastic participants. The next round of High Road to Reading events will run from April to June 2013.
