Tasmania Reads 2026

Reading connects us all: Be part of the story!


Libraries Tasmania is celebrating Tasmania Reads from Sunday 22 to Saturday 28 March 2026 and we invite you to be part of the story. 


Tasmania Reads is an annual week-long celebration of reading and stories in all forms, now in its fourth year!


The week is filled with fun reading-inspired events and activities for all ages at libraries, schools and organisations across Tasmania. From Storytime for the youngest story fans to hands-on workshops for teens eager to write their own story, there’s something for everyone.


Libraries Tasmania events are free to attend. Children and young people (and their families) are encouraged to attend events to connect with reading by:

     # Attending a StoryWalk led by Tasmanian Aboriginal writers and storytellers.

     # Creating a comic in a Tony Flowers workshop.

     # Visiting a library to read to a Story Dog.

     # Making a zine to tell your story, your way, by joining a zine-making session at  the library or downloading the template from our website and crafting your mini  story at home.

     # Attending the State Library and Archives of Tasmania Zine Fair to explore the world of zines.


We also encourage participation in one of our many partner events.


How will you be part of the story this
