What is the IFLA Trend Report?

                          In the global information environment, time moves quickly and there's an abundance of commentators trying to keep up. With each new technological development, a new report emerges assessing its impact on different sectors of society. The IFLA Trend Report takes a broader approach and identifies five high level trends shaping the information society, spanning access to education, privacy, civic engagement and transformation. Its findings reflect a year’s consultation with a range of experts and stakeholders from different disciplines to map broader societal changes occurring, or likely to occur in the information environment.

                          The IFLA Trend Report is more than a single document – it is a selection of resources to help you understand where libraries fit into a changing society. Before you go any further, make sure you:
