The Paper Trails project, supported by author Sir Ian Rankin, will operate across five libraries, including Ratho, with innovative programmes designed to engage local residents. <\/p>\n

Princess Anne\u2019s latest trip to Scotland follows a recent appearance at the Royal Highland Show, just outside Edinburgh, last month. <\/p>\n
