A new digital platform improving access to library services is set to be rolled out across Wales after receiving a £900,000 boost from the Welsh Government.

The shared platform will increase the range of materials available at local libraries by allowing them to share resources with one another.

It will also enable library services to cooperate on other developments such as a single Welsh library card.

Procurement of the platform was led by Cyngor Gwynedd as lead authority for this project and is expected to go live later this year.

Cyngor Gwynedd deputy leader and cabinet member for Economy and Community, Cllr Nia Jeffreys, said: ‘We are delighted to receive support from the Welsh Government for this truly innovative and collaborative project that will help transform Library Services in Wales.’
