Planned software updates were reported about Talaria's features (real-time notifications within the system, support for right-to-left Arabic language, research function) and alternatives to the current Open Access API for RSCVD (Unpaywall and OpenAlex). Future improvements also include interoperability with other library software. Finally, the meeting concluded with news about the collaboration of a Bowdoin College Student working 7 hours/week on RSCVD, on outreach activities and on depositing all missing RSCVD materials in the open access DALIA repository.

    IFLA-ine smjernice za knjižničnu podršku raseljenim osobama
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2025-11-13) Gerasimidou, Despina; Bolt, Nancy; Rakočević Uvodić, Maela; Okerson, Ann; Rakočević Uvodić, Maela
    Suočeni s najvećom globalnom izbjegličkom krizom od Drugog svjetskog rata, podrška raseljenim osobama koju knjižnice pružaju jedna je od najvažnijih stvari koje mi kao knjižničarska zajednica trenutno možemo učiniti. Knjižnice imaju ključnu ulogu kao prostori zajednice kojima se vjeruje i koji su otvoreni svima, bez obzira na njihovu raseljenost, stanje neizvjesnosti ili bilo koju vrstu intersekcionalne ranjivosti s kojom se mogu suočavati istodobno, poput rodnog identiteta, djetinjstva, starije dobi ili invaliditeta. Svojim djelovanjem knjižnice doprinose dvosmjernom procesu integracije: osnažuju raseljene pojedince da se uključe u zajednice domaćina, pomažući im da se oporave od trauma, a istodobno omogućuju i raseljenima i zajednicama domaćinima da uče jedni od drugih i cijene kulturnu raznolikost. Prve IFLA smjernice za knjižnice koje podržavaju raseljenu populaciju imaju za cilj poslužiti kao sredstvo za proširenje tradicionalne uloge knjižničarstva, otvarajući novo područje učenja i razvoja za knjižnice.

    Το Μανιφέστο των IFLA-UNESCO για τη Δημόσια Βιβλιοθήκη 2022 προσφέρει ενημέρωση για το σπουδαίο αυτό εργαλείο για τη συνηγορία υπέρ των βιβλιοθηκών. Μετά την τελευταία ενημέρωση το 1994, η νέα έκδοση λαμβάνει υπ’ όψιν αλλαγές στην τεχνολογία και στην κοινωνία, ώστε να διασφαλίζεται ότι το Μανιφέστο συνεχίζει να αντανακλά την πραγματικότητα και την αποστολή των δημοσίων βιβλιοθηκών σήμερα.
