The Reopening of Albyn School’s La Bibliothèque Française in Aberdeen
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the reopening of Albyn School’s La Bibliothèque Française, in Aberdeen, on 10 November 2026; notes that French is an official language, or an administrative language, in over fifty countries and dependencies across all inhabited continents; recognises that the library is free and, with a collection of more than 2,000 books, offers a unique opportunity for the Aberdeen community to discover, enjoy and practise the French language through reading and to learn more about different Francophone countries and cultures; further recognises that Aberdeen is a diverse and internationally connected city, and acknowledges that learning other languages not only enables us to communicate with more people and to build new friendships, but also helps us to gain greater empathy and to see the world from different perspectives.
