We’ve moved away from simply releasing a PDF because we want this report to be the next piece in an ongoing conversation – not a definitive statement on the Summit and what it means for the profession. Recollect allows us to create a living document, not a static pdf.
We are keen to hear your thoughts – are we missing anything? Does the future vision sound like one you’d want to participate in? Are the actions realisable?
On Recollect each section of the report is presented in greater detail. You can drill down from the summary presented here to more detailed commentary. You can also comment, share, link to other material, and upload your own content.
We’re keen to continue to challenge each other to excel so this site isn’t just about ideas, it’s about action! Let us know what you’re doing in your library to take us to the future.
On July 31st 2015 the Library and Information Association of New Zealand Aotearoa and Te Rōpū Whakahau co-hosted Taking Libraries to 2025: The Future of Libraries Summit at the Michael Fowler Centre in Wellington.
We invite you to comment on the topics, and upload photos of your own activities, ideas and thoughts.
