In 2016, the Digital Xtra Fund supported 22 projects including the Scottish Library & Information Council’s proposal to upskill library staff to enable them to deliver free coding clubs in public libraries across Scotland.

Digital Xtra Fund are very proud to have played a part in helping this happen (although most of the credit must go to the teams at SLIC and Code Club Scotland). Gillian Daly, Head of Policy & Projects at SLIC, recently wrote about their success at introducing code clubs in libraries throughout Scotland and what the digital future holds
