17 August 2014 10:30 - 12:00 | Room: Amphithéâtre | SI

  • speeches from our guests of honour:
  • Our Keynote Speaker is the renowned philosopher Bernard Stiegler, who will give a speech concerning “The Future of Reading.”
  • and a special presentation of French national culture

Keynote Speaker: Bernard Stiegler

Bernard Stiegler is one of the leading French philosophers of our generation. He develops the work of Jacques Derrida, Gilbert Simondon and Andre Leroi-Gourhan in a wide-ranging analysis of our relationship with technology. Stiegler established himself in France in 1994 with the publication of the first volume of La Technique et Le Temps (‘Technics and Time’).

Bernard Stiegler

Throughout his life, Stiegler has published widely on the subjects of philosophy, technology, digitisation, and on the problem of individuation in consumer capitalism. Some of his most notable works include: two volumes of De La Misère Symbolique (‘Of Symbolic Misery’), three volumes of Mécréance et Discrédit (‘Disbelief and Discredit’) and two volumes Constituer l’Europe (‘Constituting Europe’). His 2009 publication Acting out is particularly well known.

Professor Stiegler has a long term engagement with the relation between technology and philosophy, not only in a theoretical sense, but also situating them in industry and society as practices. He is one of the founders (in 2005) of the political group Ars Industrialis based in Paris, which calls for an industrial politics of spirit, by exploring the possibilities of the technology of spirit, to bring forth a new “life of the mind”. Since 2013, Stiegler has also been a member of the Conseil national du numérique (CNNum—French Digital Council).

Bernard Stiegler is Director of the Institut de Recherche et d’Innovation (IRI), professor of philosophy at Université de Technologie de Compiègne and Professorial Fellow at Goldsmiths, University of London, and until 2009 was director of the Department of Cultural Development at the Pompidou Centre in Paris.

Session 67B — Professional activities – what makes an IFLA unit successful? — IFLA Market

17 August 2014 12:15 - 13:30 | Room: Salle Gratte-Ciel 1-3

IFLA’s priorities and strategic direction are defined by its Governing Board on behalf of its members and should be driven forward in part by the IFLA units. In order to do this effectively, IFLA units need first an understanding of these priorities, then the ideas, people and tools, to carry out activities that will benefit IFLA members and move IFLA forward as the leading international body representing library associations and institutions.

All professional units (Section Standing Committees, Special Interest Groups and Strategic Programme committees) should send one representative to this session to share ideas about identifying, planning and communicating projects and activities that will involve and bring benefits to the international IFLA member community. The session will be interactive and held primarily in English.

Session 67C — @ Your Library — IFLA Market

17 August 2014 12:15 - 13:30 | Room: Forum 1

Want to increase the public visibility of libraries in your country? Come hear examples of how library associations and libraries in Europe, Asia, and the Americas have created their campaigns—and learn how you can participate in this IFLA/ALA partnership initiative to promote libraries.

Session 67D — Producing IFLA standards – a “how to” session for IFLA units — IFLA Market

17 August 2014 12:15 - 13:30 | Room: Forum 2

IFLA publishes a wide selection of standards, covering a varied range of library activities and services. They are aimed at providing a common understanding of processes and methods in developing information and library services and products across all countries and library types. The standards are written and compiled by the IFLA professional units – sometimes working in their own specific area, sometimes collaborating with other professional units or organisations outside IFLA.

The Committee on Standards has produced a manual to help guide the production of these documents. It covers how to take the steps needed to produce an IFLA standard - from building a base of best practice, to writing a document, seeking input on the contents, correctly formatting it and finally seeking IFLA endorsement.

Representatives from all IFLA professional units (Sections, Special Interest Groups, Strategic Programmes) should attend this session to take back ideas from, and information on, the new procedures manual to their Standing Committees. They are also welcome to bring suggestions for improving the manual or the procedures around the production and publication of IFLA standards. It doesn’t matter if your unit already manages a list of its own standards, or if it has never produced any, this session will have information and ideas for everyone.

The Lyon Declaration calls upon United Nations Member States to make an international commitment through the post-2015 development agenda for the Sustainability Development Goals to ensure that everyone has access to, and is able to understand, use and share the information that is necessary to promote sustainable development and democratic societies. It was prepared by IFLA and a number of strategic partners in the library and development communities. The Declaration will be launched by IFLA President Sinikka Sipilä and the Mayor of Lyon Gérard Collomb.

Florence Aubenas

Florence Aubenas (AFP) Florence Aubenas is a Belgian born, French journalist who has worked for Le Monde since 2012. For nearly 20 years she worked at Libération as well as several years with Le Nouvel Observateur. As an international reporter and war correspondent, she has covered critical events in Rwanda, Kosovo, Algeria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya as well as many important criminal trials.

She gained public attention in France during the first Outreau trial in 2004. In this famous “judiciary disaster” she was one of the first to (correctly) question the guilt of some of those convicted.

Florence Aubenas was taken hostage in Iraq on January 5, 2005 along with her translator Hussein Hanoun Al-Saadi. Both were freed on June 11, 2005. Her abduction transformed Ms Aubenas into a rallying figure for press freedom advocates in France and beyond. The Paris-based group Reporters Without Borders worked tirelessly for her release. A photo of her and Hanoun Al-Saadi hung on walls in cities all across Europe. During their six-month period of captivity, French broadcasters regularly reminded viewers of their situation.

From July 2009 until June 2012, Florence served as President of L'Observatoire international des prisons (OIP), a French organization dedicated to ensuring decent conditions of confinement and the respect of fundamental rights for detainees.

In 2009 she embarked on an extensive piece of undercover journalism in Caen, Normandy that exposed the plight of temporary workers forced to subsist on below minimum wages—in a similar manner as Günter Wallraff did in Germany during the 1980s and Barbara Ehrenreich in the USA during the 2000s. Her goal was "to tell the story of the people in France who are going under.” After many temporary jobs, she worked as a cleaning lady on ferries on Ouistreham’s quays. The resulting book, “Le Quai de Ouistreham” became a bestseller in France.

Florence Aubenas regularly speaks publicly on her ideas and ambitions for journalism.

In recent years, residency models seem to be on a rise in librarianship, providing an alternative model to the conventional concept of internships most of us know. But what are distinctive features of residencies? How do they differ from internships? What are potential benefits and downsides of both concepts for new librarians, educators and employers? Are there even other ways to let students and new graduates gain working experience at the beginning of their career? Let’s find out during this session!

Agenda:

  • Introduction to residency models and related concepts (Bridgette Hendrix & Sebastian Wilke, Information Coordinator & Co-Convenor, NPSIG)
  • Short reports by participants on their experiences with residencies
  • Participants build their own residency model using the hackathon approach
  • Presentation of final concepts

As the agenda suggests, this session is supposed to be open and based on the input of all participants. We encourage everyone to share their personal experience on the topic with each other and to actively contribute to hacking new residency models.

On the other side of the equation, artists, designers, and curators are witnessing the revolutionary impact of scientific thinking on their modes of practice. This session highlights collaborations between art practitioners and scientists as well as the library collections and services that support the intersection of these two spheres.
