Select projects from the 27 school and public libraries participating the Libraries Ready to Code program will be featured in District Dispatch posts each week leading up to ALA's Annual Conference in June 2018, when the cohort will release their beta toolkit.
The Libraries Ready to Code (RtC) cohort announced in October 2017 is going strong. The 27 participating school and public libraries are in the midst of implementing their projects. In part, these projects were developed to test a RtC library program framework that fosters computational thinking (CT) literacies among youth. The framework grew from ALA’s ongoing RtC initiative and is the basis for a collection of tools and resources that fully support any library that wants to offer these types of youth programs.
