The Book Relay

Last changed: 12 September 2024

There are books that have meant a lot in our lives. They may be books we read as children or adults, non-fiction or fiction. In the Book Relay, staff, researchers and students at SLU highlight some of their greatest reading experiences.

The person who has held the baton will present their books and open an exhibition of the selected books. The exhibition will alternate between the libraries in Umeå, Alnarp and Uppsala. The person who has chosen their books will then pass the task on to the next person who will select their books.

The first to take the baton is vice-chancellor Maria Knutson Wedel. She will inaugurate her exhibition and talk about her chosen books at the library in Uppsala on 2 October at 12:10. Her exhibition will then be on display in Umeå from 5 November and in Alnarp from 4 December.
