Today, IFLA opens the nominations process for over 800 positions on its many committees. There are six weeks for candidates to come forward, and for Members and Affiliates to submit nominations for the varied positions available.   

Now is the time to nominate candidates that are committed to making changes in our profession and who, through their energy and expertise, will imbue our Governing Board, councils, and committees with vitality and passion.  IFLA needs active and committed individuals, from all parts of the world, backgrounds, and experience and expertise, who can make a difference by participating fully in the professional activities that support the global library field. From strategic issues to hands-on opportunities, there are openings for all who wish to bring an international perspective to their work.

The timeline and additional information on all positions can be found on IFLA’s Election 2023 webpage and in the IFLA Elections 2023 Guide. Take some time to read through the IFLA Elections Guide and if you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact the Elections Team at elections@ifla.org.

Be active in IFLA and broaden your professional outlook!
