We kindly invite you to the IFLA Satellite Meeting organised by the IFLA Bibliography, Subject Analysis and Access, and Cataloguing Sections and Koninklijke Bibliotheek van België (KBR). The conference will take place in Brussels at KBR, the Royal Library of Belgium, on 18-19 August 2023.
The IFLA Bibliography Section is seeking proposals for papers to be presented at its Open Session at the IFLA World Library and Information Congress 2023 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
In alignment with our February newsletter theme, partnerships, we explore the relationship between IFLA’s metadata Sections - Bibliography (BIB), Cataloguing (CAT), and Subject Analysis and Access (SAA) - how these IFLA sections are related and work together, and how their work intersects with the work of IFLA’s Review Groups: Bibliographic Conceptual Models (BCM), ISBD, LIDATEC, and UNIMARC. We also highlight their individual Section projects, which contribute globally to the area of the bibliographic universe.
The IFLA Bibliography Section's National Bibliographic Register profiles have recently been updated.
The National Bibliographic Register provides profiles describing 48 national bibliographies.
Recording and slides from the May 27, 2021 webinar are available.
