The People’s Network is a national scheme to provide public access to the internet and other information and communications technology (ICT) services in every public library.
The People’s Network is a real success story, and now offers:
- Access for all members of the community, including help for those with disabilities
- Help in using e-government services offered by councils and government departments
- Taster sessions and access to online learning, such as Learndirect
- Valuable information, for example, on local community groups or local and family history
MLA North West's current work in this area includes:
- Evaluating the success of the People's Network
- Encouraging libraries in the region to participate in further national developments, such as the 'Enquire' on-line enquiry service
- Participating in the national procurement project for electronic reference sources
