Gaelic Books Council

A visit to the Gaelic Books Council at the Mod is an absolute essential.

There's been an absolute explosion in Gaelic book publishing over the past few years, and everytime I visit the Council, there's so many more books to read.

Tormod and Màiri (pictured here) are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable people. Always welcoming, they always remember who you are and always speak to you in Gaelic, even if you're a beginner learner - such great attitudes. Tormod is from Harris, and Màiri, North Uist - needles to say, tha Gàidhlig math aca.

The shops got a fantastic range of Gaelic CDs too...

The Glasgow shop can be found in Partick and for more info see www.gaelicbooks.net
