The Public Library Improvement Fund has played a significant part in transforming Scotland’s public library landscape since its inception in the early 2000s.
PLIF has funded numerous innovative and imaginative projects right across the country, having an enormous impact on both individuals and communities. The range of projects funded has been diverse and wide‐ranging, and the fund is valued by the Scottish public library community.
In 2015, Professor Peter Reid and Ms Caroline Whitehead of the Department of Information Management at Robert Gordon University, undertook a review of PLIF on behalf of the Scottish Library and Information Council (SLIC). This report presents the findings of this review.
