There are just over 40 days to go until the most exciting, most inclusive, most international event in the library calendar – the IFLA World Library and Information Congress!

It's your opportunity to discover, discuss, present, provoke and solve the key questions facing our field.

At a time of disruption and uncertainty, there is nothing as powerful as working together in order to build a bright future for our profession and the communities that rely on us.

With the publication of our programme, you can now get a taste of the over 160 inspiring and insightful sessions waiting for you, spread over three days and three time zones.

From artificial intelligence to the Sustainable Development Goals, and from the value of heritage to the power of music in libraries, you're sure to find opportunities to make you think and expand your horizons.

We'll be updating the programme regularly, and advertising exciting speakers through this newsletter and social media, so watch this space!

Don’t hesitate to register for this unique opportunity. We are offering record low prices for tickets, making it possible for more people than ever before to take part. You can save even more by taking advantage of our early bird rate, but you only have until Friday to do this, so hurry!

We are IFLA!

Asia and Oceania Session Profile

Libraries throughout the world are undertaking a wide variety of activities that impact society and assist in the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In its session, IFLA's Section for Asia and Oceania will invite expert speakers to provide their insights on high-impact initiatives implemented by libraries in their region.

Among others, we will hear from His Excellency Ambassador Prasad, Permanent Representative of Fiji to the United Nations, who will launch this session discussing why libraries and community resource centres are so critical to tacking the climate emergency.
