    A Window Of Imagination: Encouraging Reading and Sustainability at the Jagodina Public Library
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2026-01-16) Rajić, Jelena; Milošević, Jasna
    The Children's Department at the Jagodina Public Library transforms its large window, overlooking the busy main street with a lot of passers-by, into a unique and vibrant exhibition space. Librarians create various objects from recycled materials that reflect themes such as seasons, nature, book characters, holidays, etc, while including books connected to these themes. It is regulalry updated with new thematic objects in order to keep the display interesting and appealing. The window catches the attention of passers-by, especially children and serves as a visual invitation to the library. Children admire the vibrant and eye-catching displays and become inspired to explore the books on the themes that are presented. Children are invited to participate in hands-on workshops where they make objects for the library window with librarians. The Library's goals with this initiative are to promote a love of reading, encourage creativity and handson learning, raise environmental awareness, increase library visits and memberships and to enhance the library's visibility and reputation within the local community. Over the past two years, the window displays have led to a 29% in foot traffic to the Children's Department, as well as a 25 % increase in members.

    Research on the Artificial Intelligence Literacy Framework for Librarians
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2026-01-16) Tang, Qiong; Ma, Yunzhe
    In the era of intelligence, the extensive application of AI in libraries has imposed new demands on librarians’ professional competencies. This study aims to construct a framework for librarians’ AI literacy, providing a reference for talent recruitment, performance evaluation, and professional development in libraries. Based on the theory of competence and grounded in the actual application scenarios of AI in libraries, this research employs thematic analysis to systematically review 83 influential AI competency frameworks, standards, policies, and academic publications from around the world. A general set of elements was identified, consisting of 3 core dimensions: cognitive understanding, operational practice, and value orientation. These dimensions reflect both the essential attributes of AI literacy and the contextual requirements of library practice. Building on these findings, the study proposes an AI literacy framework for librarians comprising 2 main modules: a general literacy module and a professional literacy module. The former includes 3 dimensions—value orientation, general knowledge and skills, and professional development—while the latter focuses on AI literacy requirements related to practical application in various library functions. Keywords: Artificial Intelligence Literacy, Librarian Competency, Thematic Analysis
