Balancing Interests: Reimagining Legal Deposit in Latvia’s Dynamic Publishing Field
No full textThe current Legal Deposit Law of Latvia entered into force in mid-2006. While it can be considered relatively progressive for the time it was written, we at the National Library of Latvia are increasingly aware of how it no longer suffices in the ever-changing field of publishing, sometimes limiting our ability to acquire and preserve certain publications and other times creating unnecessary burden for publishers. Therefore, we will share the main points regarding the updates to the Law we are actively working to implement, especially regarding legal deposit regulations of digital publications, including production files, multi-media publications, publications by trade publishers, web-based content, etc. Inseparable from these developments is our ongoing work with the heterogenous publishing community, including in the form of feedback to the legal amendments proposed by us, which has led us to some takeaways we aspire to implement as part of an extensive communication campaign we are designing to target new publishers and groups of publishers that are typically more challenging to work with in particular to foster a more positive perception of the concept of the legal deposit system shifting the focus from legal duties to the idea of individual and common good
IFLA Code of Ethics Survey Results
No full text12 years on from the agreement of the current [2012] version of the IFLA Code of Ethics for Library and Information Workers, IFLA’s Advisory Committee on Freedom of Access to Information and Freedom of Expression launched a review process. As a first step in the process, the Committee designed a survey in 2025 for IFLA members, volunteers and others in order to gather input about their awareness and use of the Code, and of the ongoing relevance of the topics it covers.

IFLA Strategy 2024-2029
No full textИФЛА-ның 2024-2029 жылдарға арналған стратегиясы Федерацияға ғасырлық мерейтойдан өтіп, БҰҰ-ның 2030 жылға дейінгі күн тәртібін іске асыруға мүмкіндік береді. Осы екі кезеңде ұзақ мерзімді жоспарға назар аударуға және біз көргіміз келетін әлемнің айқын бейнесін қалыптастыруға, сондай-ақ, бұл үдерісте кітапханалар мен ИФЛА-ның маңызын анықтауға ықпал етеді.
ИФЛА-ның 2024–2029 жылдарға арналған стратегиясы ұйым мүшелері мен еріктілердің пікірлеріне негізделе отырып жасалды. Бұл пікірлер сауалнамалар мен кеңестер арқылы жиналып, ИФЛА-ны қазіргі таңда қалай қабылдайтынын және болашаққа деген үміт-тілектерін түсінуге бағытталған.
Бұл стратегия нұсқаулық сипатқа ие емес, керісінше, біздің саламыздағы кез келген маман өз жоспарын әзірлеу үшін пайдалана алатын кең ауқымды негіздік құрылым болып табылады.
Стратегияда әлемдік деңгейде нақты бір көрініс ұсынылып, бұл мақсатқа жету жолында ИФЛА кітапханаларды қалай қолдай алатыны туралы өзгеріс теориясы баяндалған.
ИФЛА стратегиясы ұйымның болашақ жоспарлары үшін тұрақты бағдар ретінде қызмет етеді, прогресті бағалаудың негізін құрайды және басқа ұйымдар үшін стратегия әзірлеуге үлгі бола алады.
Бұл стратегия сондай-ақ түрлі мәдениеттерден, тілдік қауымдастықтардан, географиялық аймақтардан және өмірлік тәжірибесі әртүрлі адамдарды біріктіретін, пікір алмасуға алаң ұсынатын және нақты нәтижеге қол жеткізуді қамтамасыз ететін халықаралық федерация ретіндегі ИФЛА-ның мақсатын айқындайды
