The document outlines Scotland's national strategy for public libraries from 2015 to 2020 called "Ambition and Opportunity". The strategy was launched in June 2015 and has four strategic aims: 1) Expanding the reach and impact of library services, 2) Developing skills for learning, work and life, 3) Promoting digital participation and inclusion, and 4) Strengthening communities. It is being implemented by the Scottish Library and Information Council (SLIC) with support from the Scottish Government, COSLA, and other partner organizations.
