Last update: 6 hours ago

Community Book Sales & Festivals: Vancouver Public Library’s Friends group is back with a second annual used book sale—50,000+ titles from $2 (Aug. 28–Sept. 1)—plus a book drive Aug. 17–27. Local Literary Events: WORDSTOCK returns Aug. 22 at Antelope Park with free books for all ages, and a Richmond Memorial Library Local Author Book Fair drew crowds for series and community reads. Publishing & Culture Funding: New Zealand literature is getting a smaller slice of Creative New Zealand funding than other arts, despite strong readership. Book-to-Stage/Screen Buzz: Irvine Welsh hopes his Trainspotting musical returns after a UK tour was cancelled for cost reasons; meanwhile, Dungeon Crawler Carl’s breakout is fueling more adaptations and related releases. Global Book News: Myanmar reportedly banned a book on trafficking of migrants into “cyberscam compounds.” War & Books: Russian strikes hit Kyiv’s book market, underscoring how conflict disrupts reading spaces. Crime & Books: Kuwait seized 2kg of meth hidden inside books in a drug bust.
