About
Each fall, the Saskatchewan Library Association (SLA) hosts the Book Spine Poetry Contest overlapping with Culture Days. What is book spine poetry? Book spine poetry is a free verse poem composed using the titles written on the spines of physical books, and then stacking the books on top of one another.
The 2023 Book Spine Poetry Contest will run from September 23 – November 1, 2023!
The contest features four age categories: children (ages 5 to 8), children (ages 9 to 11), teens (ages 12 to 18), and adults (ages 19 and up). The winner in each age category will receive a $100 Indigo gift card. The second place winner in each category will receive a $50 gift card, and third place a $25 gift card.
