We’re delighted to announce that Peters will be sponsoring our virtual conference taking place on 19th November 2025.

For over 90 years Peters has been a trusted partner to libraries, schools and educators across the UK, specialising for many years in children's books and more recently adding furniture, library design and adult stock to their offering. Their work helps to create a love of reading and makes sure every young person can find stories that speak to them.
To celebrate this exciting new partnership, the ASCEL team visited Peters’ offices and bookshop for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour. This included a sneak peek at how the company operates, discovering the newest children’s titles and meeting the Peters team who make it all happen.

Alison Tarrant, Head of Library Services at Peters says, 'We're proud to be working alongside ASCEL making sure that readers stay at the heart of what we all do.' 

Tabitha Witherick, Chief Executive at ASCEL says, 'We're so pleased to have Peters sponsoring this year's virtual conference. Their dedication for helping children discover the joy of reading truly reflects our shared commitment to creating library spaces where young people feel inspired and included'.

A huge thanks to the team at Peters for the warm welcome and for sharing the magic of what they do. We’re delighted to have them on board as a sponsor for this year's conference and can’t wait to celebrate our shared passion for inspiring the next generation of readers.
