Library nets £2m funding for revamp
Culture secretary Fiona Hyslop announced that the money would be spent on redeveloping the NLS Causewayside building in Edinburgh, which houses half the national collection.
The exterior of the Causewayside building is to be replaced and the building will be turned into a “low energy storage space”.
