Critics Review
For those who have always been interested in coding but never felt confident enough to start, this book is for you. The personal narratives and case studies are sure to leave you thinking ‘yes, I can master this!’ – Brady D. Lund, Assistant Professor of Information Science, University of North Texas, USA and Author of Python for Information Professionals and Artificial Intelligence for Libraries
Stroud treats professional experience as an asset in learning to code. Learning to Code Later combines manageable projects with practical guidance on securing the time, training, and workplace support adults need to keep learning. His emphasis on understanding code and testing AI-generated suggestions keeps professional judgment central to technical learning. I recommend the book to information professionals and to the educators and library leaders responsible for supporting their development. – Witt Salley, Ed.D., M.L.I.S., Public Librarian and Digital Learning Educator, USA
