IFLA’s General Assembly will take place from 13.00–15.00 (CET) on 5 November 2020 in The Hague, The Netherlands. At this meeting, the President, Treasurer, and Secretary General report on IFLA’s annual activities and strategic directions.

The current situation in the Netherlands as regards COVID-19 is evolving rapidly, with high rates of infection, and new restrictions on the economy and society. As a result, and both in line with official Dutch health advice and a desire to avoid any IFLA Members exposing themselves to risk unnecessarily, we have to encourage Members to avoid coming to The Hague. 

The Dutch Government has implemented reservations for public buildings such as libraries. If you feel you must be present at the General Assembly, please assist our planning by registering with us. Send an email to generalassembly@ifla.org by 12pm Central European (The Hague) Time on 30 October.

The entire 2020 IFLA General Assembly will be live-streamed on YouTube.
