The Alliance of Literary Societies (ALS) is an umbrella organisation for literary societies mainly based in the United Kingdom.[1]

The Alliance of Literary Societies was founded in 1973, as a result of a campaign to preserve a property associated with Charles Dickens, and has over 120 member societies. Its president is James Naughtie.[2]

The Alliance offers various member benefits: general advice, marketing of its member societies and their events via the ALS website, regular news by email, three newsletters per year, plus an annual journal ALSo.
