500 Years of Scottish Printing Events in 2008

Filed under: Culture, Scottish History — Alexander Graham

Delighted to report that the ‘Imprentit’ exhibition at the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh covers a significant amount of Gaelic material — including the first Gaelic book published in 1567, Knox’s Liturgy, and a copy of the Gaelic Catechism is also on display.

2008 is the five-hundredth anniversary of printing in Scotland and in celebration, there are many events taking place throughout the country; a complete list of these events can be found here.
