Now in its centenary year, the National Library of Scotland is a treasure trove of Scotland's literary past - but did you know it also cares for the archives of our nation's contemporary writers? Today, we explore the idea of a 'living archive' with authors Doug Johnstone and Ewan Morrison. Join them for a conversation with Mary Paulson-Ellis about building an archive, the creative and curatorial choices involved, and discover the personal objects that fuel each writer's creative life.
