Digital Inclusion Week 2026 — free workshops

About this opportunity

For Digital Inclusion Week (October 5–11, 2026), Toronto Public Library runs free in-person and online programs for all ages on topics including coding, artificial intelligence, content creation and digital privacy. The week opens with a full-day expo featuring panels and workshops, including sessions on how AI is shaping democracy. Separate program streams are listed for adults, teens and kids, and individual sessions are booked through the library's events calendar — some require a library card and fill up quickly. This is the cheapest credible way in the city to try a new technical topic with a person in the room: every session is free, and computers are provided for many in-person classes.

What you get

• Free workshops on coding, AI, content creation and digital privacy
• Full-day opening expo with panels and hands-on activities

Who can take part

Open to the public. Programs are grouped by audience (adults, teens, kids); some sessions require a Toronto Public Library card to register.

Eligibility is copied from the organizer's own published rules — they make the final call. Confirm on the official page before you apply.

Coming later: attendees who leave genuinely useful reviews will earn credits toward paid opportunities. Nothing is being awarded yet — reviews are unpaid and unverified for now.
