International Library Associations

International Library Associations are global organizations that bring together library professionals, institutions, and stakeholders to promote the development, sharing, and advancement of library and information services worldwide. They provide a platform for collaboration, professional development, setting standards, and advocating for access to information. Examples include the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), which supports libraries across borders, encourages best practices, and fosters innovation in the library field. These associations help librarians stay connected, share knowledge, and address global challenges related to information access and literacy.
