Each week we feature an interview with a contemporary poet, musician or artist, and include a reading in every episode and usually a new music track every other show. The Scottish Poetry Library is a place for those who like poetry, whether it is Scottish or not.

Ryan is the Reader in Residence at the Scottish Poetry Library. We see ourselves as very much a poetry library in Scotland, rather than being about only Scottish poetry, and we promote poetry from all over the world.
