The Scots Language Publication Grant

The Scots Language Publication Grant 2025 is now open for applications.

Funded by the Scottish Government and administered by Scottish Book Trust, the Scots Language Publication Grant was created by the Scots Language Resource Network to support Scottish and UK publishers to publish and promote work written in Scots. This includes the publishing of new work (including translated texts) and the reprinting of existing historical or culturally significant work. The grant is designed to cover publishing costs such as editing, advances, illustrations and cover design, typesetting, printing and marketing.

Since launching in 2019, the grant has supported the publication of a brilliant range of Scots books, including both new work and translated texts. Learn more about the books published through the grant.

Deadline: Wednesday 18th June 12noon
