In the brave new world of the modern Labour party, a pupil will be able to sit at a screen in any school library and tap into the resources of London’s Science Museum, then discuss his or her new-found knowledge with students around the country via computers.
Such is the technological vision in a Labour Party document out this week, Communicating Britain’s Future.
Millennium funds from the National Lottery should be used to create a national arts and science collection which would be available on CD-Rom and eventually on-line over computer networks, the document says. This collection would be available, free to every school and public library.
