The Association for Scottish Literature is an educational charity promoting the languages and literature of Scotland. Founded in 1970, we publish classic works of Scottish literature which have either been neglected or which merit a fresh presentation to a modern audience; collections of scholarly essays and monographs; and Scotnotes, a series of study guides to major Scottish writers for senior school pupils and undergraduates. For more than forty years we have also published New Writing Scotland, an annual anthology of contemporary poetry and prose in English, Gaelic and Scots.
