    Welcome to the Skills Agenda for the Trend Report! This publication complements the IFLA Trend Report, sharing a set of areas where, in the view of the team of emerging leaders who have prepared it, we should be focusing in order to ensure maximum readiness for whatever the future may bring. Following a summary of the methodology used, it clusters the chosen skills into three groups – more practical/technical skills, partnership and collaboration skills, and personal development. In each, there is a short profile, giving a definition, an explanation of why it’s important, where things stand today, and next steps.

    Comparative study of 5 countries on how libraries contribute to SDGs
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2023-09-24) Akbaytürk, Tuba; Cevher, Nilay; Çimen, Ertuğrul; Zayim Gedik, Kübra
    Libraries are essential societal stakeholders that can contribute to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. As centers of information, libraries can play a critical role in the dissemination of research and knowledge. As a key resource, libraries are always at the forefront of education and awareness creation. This poster studies the involvement of academic libraries with sustainable development in different countries and explores the factors affecting the extend of this involvement. For this study, five countries namely Azerbaijan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Greece, North Macedonia, and Türkiye were selected and academic libraries in these countries are invited to fill a survey. These countries were chosen because of their geographical proximity, similar socio-economic and cultural backgrounds, and corresponding librarianship approaches. In addition, the fact that there is no story from any of these countries in the SDGs section of the IFLA Library Map of the World has been decisive in the country selection. North Macedonia was left out of the analysis due to no response. Low response rate from other four countries reminds a further need for using tools other than survey to expend the analysis. Despite the low response rate, results are highlighting rising awareness among academic libraries and librarians.
