The Edinburgh UNESCO City of Literature designation belongs to the City of Edinburgh and the people in it, so if you are running a literary event, you are part of what makes Edinburgh a literary city.  Feel free to make reference to the fact that Edinburgh is the world's first UNESCO City of Literature. 

And let us know what you are doing so we can help promote your events through our ‘What's On' section.

If you would like to use the City of Literature logo please drop us a line.  We are happy to grant permission for its use, and can send you the guidelines and a high resolution version of the logo.

In licensing the logo we are seeking to help you promote literature in Scotland, connecting you to a wider community of literary activity, and enabling you to share in a great tradition that now has worldwide recognition.

Where's Our Logo Now?

We are proud to endorse V: New International Writing From Edinburgh, a selection of work from the first five years of the Masters in Creative Writing at the University of Edinburgh.
