Осы екі кезеңде ұзақ мерзімді жоспарға назар аударуға және біз көргіміз келетін әлемнің айқын бейнесін қалыптастыруға, сондай-ақ, бұл үдерісте кітапханалар мен ИФЛА-ның маңызын анықтауға ықпал етеді. ИФЛА-ның 2024–2029 жылдарға арналған стратегиясы ұйым мүшелері мен еріктілердің пікірлеріне негізделе отырып жасалды. Бұл пікірлер сауалнамалар мен кеңестер арқылы жиналып, ИФЛА-ны қазіргі таңда қалай қабылдайтынын және болашаққа деген үміт-тілектерін түсінуге бағытталған. Бұл стратегия нұсқаулық сипатқа ие емес, керісінше, біздің саламыздағы кез келген маман өз жоспарын әзірлеу үшін пайдалана алатын кең ауқымды негіздік құрылым болып табылады. Стратегияда әлемдік деңгейде нақты бір көрініс ұсынылып, бұл мақсатқа жету жолында ИФЛА кітапханаларды қалай қолдай алатыны туралы өзгеріс теориясы баяндалған. ИФЛА стратегиясы ұйымның болашақ жоспарлары үшін тұрақты бағдар ретінде қызмет етеді, прогресті бағалаудың негізін құрайды және басқа ұйымдар үшін стратегия әзірлеуге үлгі бола алады. Бұл стратегия сондай-ақ түрлі мәдениеттерден, тілдік қауымдастықтардан, географиялық аймақтардан және өмірлік тәжірибесі әртүрлі адамдарды біріктіретін, пікір алмасуға алаң ұсынатын және нақты нәтижеге қол жеткізуді қамтамасыз ететін халықаралық федерация ретіндегі ИФЛА-ның мақсатын айқындайды.Item Trend Report 2024: Introduction Presentation (UPDATED)(International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2025-04-12) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)This presentation offers a summary of the Trend Report 2024, including the new elements added in January 2025.

However, digital technologies bring with them the possibility to manage what people view.

Biblioteke igraju ključnu ulogu kao prostori zajednice kojima se veruje, u kojima su svi dobrodošli, bez obzira na njihovo raseljavanje, psihološko stanje, ili bilo koju vrstu intersekcionalne ranjivosti, kao što su rodni identitet, detinjstvo, treće doba ili invaliditet, sa kojima se mogu suočiti istovremeno. Ovim radom biblioteke doprinose dvosmernom procesu integracije: osnažuju raseljene pojedince da se integrišu u zajednice domaćina, pomažući im da se oporave od svojih trauma, dok takođe omogućavaju i raseljenim i zajednicama domaćinima da uče jedni od drugih i cene kulturnu raznolikost. Prve IFLA smernice za biblioteke koje podržavaju raseljenu populaciju imaju za cilj da služe kao sredstvo za proširenje tradicionalne uloge bibliotekarstva, ulazeći u novu oblast za razvoj biblioteka.Item Information without Discrimination: Statement on Hungarian Laws on LGBTQ+ content(International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2021-08-25) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)In this statement, IFLA stresses that libraries should not face rules that prevent or hinder them from giving access to works which reflect the experience of any part of the communities they serve – including LGBTQ+ users and their families – or pressure to do so. This includes measures that make it harder for readers – in particular young readers – to find works, or the use of marks or other signs that stigmatise their use of such works.Item IFLA100: Initial Survey results(2025-02-16) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)This report contains an overview and analysis of the data received from the survey run in January-February 2025, asking about experience of other successful anniversaries, and ambitions for IFLA's own centenary in 2027.Item Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 1 (Library Associations and Society)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The first module of the Building Strong Library Associations (BSLA) programme focused on library associations in society.Item Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 3 (Sustaining your library association)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The third module of Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) focused on sustaining your library associationItem Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 4 (Strategic Relationships - Partnerships and Fundraising)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The fourth module of Building Strong Library Associations (BSLA) focused on strategic relationships, and in particular partnerships and fundraisingItem Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 5 (Libraries on the agenda)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The fifth module of Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) focused on advocacy and putting libraries on the agendaItem Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 6 (Library Statistics for Advocacy)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The sixth module of Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) focused on the use of library statistics in order to support advocacyItem Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 7 (Copyright)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The seventh module of the Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) programme focused on library association engagement in advocacy around copyrightItem Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) - Module 8 (Train the trainer)(2025-02-11) International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)The eighth module of the Building Strong Library Associations (2008-2018) programme focused on how participants could in turn become effective trainers in their communities.
