The project will extend the existing Yate Library to house new learning facilities, multimedia equipment, toilets and space for a refreshments area. Community groups will be able to make full use of the IT facilities and the space for training and meetings when the library is closed. The new library will deliver a wide range of learning activities catered to the needs of the whole community, including taster courses, generic courses such as basic skills and accredited courses, such as IT courses and GNVQs.
