Bookbug Sessions

Bookbug encourages all parents and carers to enjoy books with their children from as young an age as possible, developing a lifelong love of books. Bookbug sessions are fun, free and friendly events, available in most libraries. Each session lasts around 30 minutes and includes songs, stories and rhymes.

• Bookbug Timetable

The Bookbug timetable lists all the sessions, and there is no need to book except at Linlithgow Library due to space restrictions. Please phone Linlithgow Library on 01506 283880 if you wish to make a booking for the Bookbug session.​

Five easy steps to starting Bookbug's Library Challenge:

• Enrol your child at the library
• Ask for your Bookbug Library Challenge Collector Card
• Collect a stamp for each library visit
• Exchange six stamps for a beautiful certificate
• Get a new Collector card and start again
