Our Future of Change: Envisioning the Role of Libraries and the Information Community

The IFLA President’s Meeting 2017 will explore social changes taking place globally and build the agenda of tomorrow.

While the shared values of libraries and the information field remain a constant, continuous change in society creates challenges for the profession. What are the major challenges to maintaining these values?

The issues facing libraries today require a collective and joint response; successfully achieving a common vision. What will our future look like in 2030 and what roles will our libraries and our profession play to assure that all people have the opportunity to be part of a literate, informed and participatory society?

Join this high-level discussion about changes that impact societies around the world.
