About Publication & Literary Society

Welcome to the Publication and Literary Society!

We are the official home for the Silver Hand Journal, Maynooth's premier online publication for students, by students.

If you are interested in writing, reading, poetry, journalism and literary discussion, then this is the place to be! As a society we provide students with an opportunity to share their love for all things literary. From book clubs to poetry contests to newswriting workshops, we're putting on the perfect literary events for you to enjoy every single week! Enjoy reimbursed (i.e. FREE!) books for book club, and join our writers team to receive exclusive advanced copies of forthcoming books!

Nervous about checking us out? Hit us up on Instagram or Twitter and we'll set you up with a buddy for your first few events.

So why not join us? Become a published writer, discuss your favourite books or simply enjoy a bookish atmosphere, all with one society.
