Peters sponsoring 2025 conference

We’re delighted to announce that Peters is sponsoring our 2025 conference taking place on 19th November. For over 90 years Peters has been a trusted partner to libraries, schools and educators across the UK. They specialise in children’s books and more recently have added furniture, library design and adult stock to their offering. Their work helps to create a love of reading, making sure every young person can find stories that speak to them.

To celebrate this exciting new partnership, the Libraries Rising team visited Peters’ offices and bookshop for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour. We got a sneak peek at how the company operates, discovered the newest children’s titles and met the Peters team who make it all happen.

Alison Tarrant Head of Library Services at Peters says, ‘We’re proud to be working alongside Libraries Rising making sure that readers stay at the heart of what we all do.’

Tabitha Witherick, Chief Executive at Libraries Rising says, ‘We’re so pleased to have Peters sponsoring for this year’s conference. Their dedication to helping children discover the joy of reading reflects our shared commitment to creating library spaces where young people feel inspired and included’.

A huge thank you to the team at Peters for the warm welcome and for sharing the magic of their work. We’re delighted to have Peters sponsoring our 2025 conference, and can’t wait to celebrate our shared passion for inspiring the next generation of readers.
