IFLA’s Global Vision is an important chance to contribute and influence the future of the LIS field. 

 Face-to-face and online, future-oriented conversations will be taking place throughout the year. To make this a true global brainstorm, IFLA wants to see participation from all countries in the world.

To that end, share your input by sending IFLA a simple, template-based report and let the world know about your engagement using the Communications package (along with a presentation and a report template have been prepared):

• You want to organize a GLOBAL Vision Meeting - see: Guidelines for Organizers available in different language versions (English - Español - 中文 - العربية - Русский - French - German);
• You want to facilitate the IFLA Global Vision discussion. IFLA encourages you to promote the meetings under a format designed in the Communications Package. A set of useful tips about the organization of the IFLA Global Vision meetings have been included in Guidelines for Organizers.
