Escape the madness of 'The Mile' in this wee pocket of peace.
The fusion of old city wall and modern design is stunning .
Welcoming staff . A vast collection of poetry , fiction and non fiction plus an array of tourist info. Great paintings of Scottish writers on display at the moment and a whole corner of kids' activities .
Must return to spend a few hours on serious reading.

One of the joys of exploring cities which you think you know is discovering something new. I once lived in Edinburgh and used to visit quite frequently after that, but I only discovered the Scottish Poetry Library on my latest visit when I was walking up from Holyrood Road to the Royal Mile through a narrow close which also contains the offices of the Scottish National Party and the European Union in Scotland.
What an asset! A traditional library, full of books, but here focused on poetry, and Scottish Poetry in particular, set in a light spacious inviting new building where visitors are invited to explore, relax and enjoy poetry, old and new. It also holds a number of events in its upstairs space and has spaces designed for younger readers.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming in this unique asset for Edinburgh and Scotland.

Great wealth of knowledge and recognition! I really enjoyed learning more about the author, J. K. Rowling who wrote “Harry Potter”. She has her hands in the sidewalk similar to the Hollywood’s walk of Fame along with Robert Burns, Robert Louise Stevenson & Sir Walter Scott. The Writer’s museum has several rare books and person objects of the famous writers and poets.

We had no idea that this place existed until we turned down the narrow Close off the Royal Mile, eager to get away from the crowds. And peaceful it was. This modern, clean, well-ordered Library specializes in Scottish and British poetry, and for anyone who is interested in poetry, it's well-worth a visit. The upstairs portion has a "listening area" for poetry on discs. The young blond woman behind the desk was pleasant and helpful, and if we remember correctly, you are allowed to bring in your coffee (a true sign of civilization).
This is a quiet and scholarly space, not appropriate for children. An interested poet could probably spend hours here. There are periodicals as well as books. There are also a few new poetry books for sale.

A little gem hidden in a street that crosses the Royal Mile, this splendid library is small but with a very clear space; and above all a superb collection of poems. And its librarian is simply wonderful: lovely, efficient and very professional. In conclusion, it is a place that is worth revisiting ☺♥

Quaint library of poetry both in english and gaelic, very helpful staff and a gift shop that has lovely different gifts both scottish and poetry based. Worth a visit even to take a rest out of the hustle and bustle of the mile.

The Scottish Poetry Library has been recently refurbished, and it is now easier to move around as much better use appears at first sight to have been made of space. The library also makes good use of available light, giving it a brighter, fresher feel. However, there is one big flaw. I read poetry weekly at a folk club, and I spent an enjoyable half hour choosing poets that I know are popular with our members and visitors alike. When I took four books to the receptionist, I was told that two of them "were for reference only" and not available for borrowing. The receptionist was pleasant and helpful, and we reached an amicable compromise. In fact, I felt that it was unfortunate from her point of view in having to tell people that they couldn't borrow certain books. Why on earth place reference works on the same shelves as books for borrowing? Why on earth embarrass your customers? I can't recall ever having visited a library, our local library included, where reference works were not placed separately from books for lending. I can't see that it is a space issue - after all, keeping reference books separately would still involve the same number of books. Pity, because it took a lot of the pleasure out of my visit.

Nipped in whilst in Edinburgh for The Fringe. Was shown round this excellent building by Colin who explained the background and ethos of the library. It's a fascinating place which I hope to visit again soon.
