    Esta é a 3a edição das Diretrizes. A Seção da IFLA sobre Biblioteca e Serviços de Pesquisa para Parlamentos iniciou um plano para revisar a 2a edição das Diretrizes para Bibliotecas Legislativas em 2018. Esta decisão foi apoiada por descobertas de uma pesquisa de bibliotecários parlamentares que observaram que as Diretrizes precisavam ser atualizadas para refletir as mudanças significativas no cenário da informação desde que a publicação foi atualizada em 2009. Um grupo de trabalho foi criado sob a liderança de Lilian Gassie, do Serviço de Pesquisa do Congresso, Biblioteca do Congresso dos EUA, para realizar a revisão, agora reintitulada como Diretrizes para Bibliotecas Parlamentares.
