    Google has added a new project to its list of library programs, which include WiFi hotspot lending. The tech titan has teamed up with the American Library Association (ALA) to launch "Libraries Ready to Code," an initiative that aims to help equip librarians with the right skills and tools to encourage kids to code. It won't turn every librarian into a coding expect, but it will train them to be able to provide an introduction to computer science.
