구로기적의도서관 개관식(2019년 8월 27일)

기적의도서관이 처음 생긴다고 했을 때, 이런 생각을 했습니다. 우리 엄마가 도서관을 가라 하겠구나. 난 엄마한테 끌려오겠구나, 생각했습니다. 어제 저는 새로 지어진 도서관을 처음 둘러봤습니다. 그런데 엄마한테 끌려오는 게 아니라 내가 애들을 끌고 올 수도 있겠단 생각이 들었습니다. 이 도서관은 우리들끼리의 잡담 공간과 낙서 공간, 그리고 미끄럼틀도 있어 아주 멋진 곳입니다. 기적의도서관을 지어 주셔서 감사합니다.(안태윤 어린이)

Guro Miracle Library Opening Ceremony(2019. 08. 27)

When I first came to see the Guro Miracle Library, I thought this way. My mom will tell me to go to the library. My mother will be dragging me to the library. Yesterday I first toured the newly built Guro Miracle Library. I wasn't dragged by my mom, but I thought I might be bringing my friends. This library is a wonderful place for us. There is also a chat room, a graffiti space, and a slide. Thank you for building the Guro Miracle Library.(Ahn Tae-yun)

As a basis for effective library advocacy, we will produce high quality, high impact tools that demonstrate to external audiences the contribution of libraries to development in all of its dimensions.  

1.2 Build a strong presence in international organizations and meetings as a valued partner 

We will strengthen our links with key international institutions, in order to shape laws, guidance and programmes which benefit libraries. We will adopt a strategic, long-term approach, and build our reputation as an essential partner.    

1.3 Work with library associations and libraries to identify key legal and funding challenges to their work, and advocate for action   

Collaborating closely with members, we will strengthen our understanding and ability to deliver support for advocacy in priority areas at national and regional levels, including literacy, learning, reading, innovation, and access to knowledge and heritage. We will deliver on this through direct engagement, guidance, and high-quality advocacy materials.   

1.4 Shape public opinion and debate around open access and library values, including intellectual freedom and human rights   

We will provide practical and intellectual leadership to support open access and the broader values of our field. We aim to facilitate an understanding of libraries’ role as champions of intellectual freedom, encourage reflection, coordinate action, and advocate externally.   

STRATEGIC DIRECTION 2: INSPIRE AND ENHANCE PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE

We inspire the profession through future thinking and by encouraging new and promising approaches. We drive the development of libraries through standards, guidelines and best practices. We provide the tools and resources necessary to foster community, facilitate shared action, and support innovative programs and actions. We work to safeguard, strengthen and elevate the world’s cultural heritage in all of its diverse forms, including traditional, historical, indigenous and contemporary expression.

KEY INITIATIVES

2.1 Produce, communicate and distribute key resources and materials that inspire the profession  

We will consolidate our position as a hub for authoritative and original research and sources about the library and information landscape. We will provide up-to-date data, insights and innovative ideas which provide an essential foundation for thinking about libraries, and key reports which catalyse innovation.

2.2 Deliver high quality campaigns, information and other communications products on a regular basis to engage and energise libraries

Our regular communications foster an active mindset in the profession, challenging current structures and behaviours, and giving libraries globally the understanding, enthusiasm and tools to take action.

2.3 Develop standards, guidelines, and other materials that foster best professional practice

As the most representative global library organisation, we will develop standards, guidelines and other documents that allow all types of libraries, everywhere, to improve practice and adapt to a changing world, keep up with and adopt new technologies, to meet user expectations.

2.4 Provide tools and infrastructure that support the work of libraries

We will support the work of the profession worldwide, through well-designed practical tools and platforms in areas of unique IFLA strength, which contribute to the effective delivery of services and library missions.

STRATEGIC DIRECTION 3: CONNECT AND EMPOWER THE FIELD

We are a hub for dialogue and action. We are the motor of a connected and aligned library field, characterised by a true spirit of collaboration, in which no librarian is left behind. We unite passions, provide platforms, and enable innovation, learning, and professional development at all levels. Through this, we respond to current challenges and opportunities, and empower the library field to deliver high quality services that meet community needs, and foster literacy, innovation, heritage preservation and access to information for all users.

KEY INITIATIVES

3.1 Provide excellent opportunities for face-to-face networking and learning

We will maximise the potential of physical meetings as venues for uniting the library field and breaking down the barriers to collaboration, enabling access to new insights and knowledge, and promoting the sharing of ideas.

We will develop a spirit of continuous collaboration in the library field through virtual networking tools that enable every librarian to be involved and engaged in a global conversation.

3.3 Empower the field at the national and regional levels

We will enhance the capacity of the library field to deliver actions tailored to regional and national characteristics and requirements by strengthening library associations, institutions and networks at all levels.

3.4 Provide targeted learning and professional development

We will provide a variety of learning opportunities that update current practices. We will build capacity to undertake community engagement and evaluation, make every librarian an advocate, and develop and connect the leaders of the future.

STRATEGIC DIRECTION 4: OPTIMISE OUR ORGANISATION

We maximise our ability to deliver on our missions in the present and future. We prepare for the long term through the development of ambitious yet realistic plans for ongoing stability and sustainability. Key to this are efforts to grow and diversify our membership, strengthen our regional presence, and actively engage members through an effective professional structure and a wide variety of volunteering possibilities. We will increase our visibility, and provide efficient, effective, and innovative services and support.

KEY INITIATIVES

4.1 Foster the long-term financial continuity and stability of the organisation

We will plan for the future, developing financial strategies and options for long-term sustainability, based on a strong understanding of potential partnerships and a capacity to seize new opportunities.

4.2 Effectively mobilise our human resources and networks

We will maximise the potential of all of our people and encourage change and innovation through dynamic units and structures, a high-performing headquarters team, effective regional offices, language centres and attractive and varied volunteering opportunities.

4.3 Increase, diversify and engage our membership

We will reinforce our position as the most representative global library organisation through a membership strategy that promotes diversity, engagement and action. We are recognised as an organisation that listens and responds to its members’ expectations.

4.4 Increase our visibility through excellent and innovative communications

We will strengthen our brand and ability to deliver high quality, high impact and engaging communications tailored to the needs of the global library and information community.

A Call to Action

This Strategy has been made possible by the ideas and energy of the global library field.

Yet it is a milestone, not a destination. It is not only a document to be read, but to be used, because everyone has a role in building our future. Its success will be our success, but it depends on each of us to play our part.

The four Strategic Directions and sixteen Key Initiatives are therefore a framework for the thousands, if not the millions of individual actions which will be necessary to transform our field and achieve our vision.

We need you to reflect on what actions you can take that contribute to the goals of the Strategy, both individually and collectively. What can you do to share its message, and to inspire and engage others, just as you have been inspired and engaged?

Share your actions, build your connections, and spread the word.

Together, we can build a strong and united library field, powering literate, informed and participatory societies.

"사서 및 기타 정보와 관련하여 일하는 사람은 당국이나 사용자의 반응에 대한 두려움이나 불확실성에 근거하여 특정 저작물에 접근하지 않도록 의식적으로 또는 무의식적으로 선택하는 자기 검열의 위험이 있습니다. 이러한 검열은 기록되지 않을 위험이 있으며, 이를 식별하고 대응하기가 더 어려워집니다. 그러므로 도서관 및 정보 서비스, 협회 및 그 종사자를 포함한 모든 개인, 정부 및 기타 사회 기관은 표현의 자유와 정보에 대한 접근의 자유를 방어하고 장려해야 합니다."

There is also the risk of self-censorship – conscious or unconscious choices by librarians and other information workers not to give access to specific works on the basis of fear or uncertainty about the reaction by authorities or users. Such censorship risks going unrecorded, making it more difficult to identify and to counter.

All persons, governments and other institutions of society—including library and information services, their associations and their workers—are therefore called to defend and promote freedom of expression and freedom of access to information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IFLA Statement on Censorship (2019)

On the 20th anniversary of IFLA's Statement on Libraries and Intellectual Freedom, IFLA has published a new statement, offering further guidance and support to members facing censorship challenges. 

This offers more guidance - and a reference point - for libraries looking to ensure that their users have access to the widest possible variety of resources, as well as a reminder of the risks and questions they should ask themselves. 

The text of the IFLA Statement is below:

IFLA Statement on Censorship

Censorship is the deliberate limiting, on the part of a state or non-state actor, of the availability of, access to, or transmission of information or ideas to or among persons.  Censorship most commonly occurs in the form of the banning of books, films or other media or the blocking of Internet content. It aims to suppress facts, opinions, beliefs or other ideas that are, for example, inconvenient to a government, objectionable to a religious group, or challenging to those espousing a particular moral code, intellectual paradigm or artistic convention. 

Banning of media may occur by such means as prohibiting the publishing, sale, importation, advertising, broadcasting, projection, library lending or artistic treatment of works or content therein. Blocking of internet content can occur through complete or partial Internet shutdowns to prevent communication among persons or groups, or where algorithms filter and block specific content.

Censorship runs counter to Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (examples of other relevant texts are given in Annex 1), which states that: ‘Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers’.

Nevertheless, some limited restrictions on the absolute access to information and ideas have been deemed acceptable in many societies (examples are identified in Annex 2).  The possibility of such restrictions is assumed in Article 29 (2) of the Universal Declaration, which states that:

In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society.

Some limitations on the free flow of information and ideas that are widely accepted, though with appropriate circumspection, might include restrictions on the circulation of, or access to, criminal content such as child pornography or incitements to terrorist activity. Others, such as the “right to be forgotten,” are more ambiguous, raising questions about how to balance, in this case, a resistance to censorship with a respect for the privacy of individuals. See Annex 2 for further examples.

Nonetheless, while there may be certain tolerable limited restrictions on the free flow of information and ideas, Article 30 of the Universal Declarationis a reminder that, notwithstanding such restrictions, the intellectual freedom of humanity must generally be respected: 'Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein'.

Issues for Libraries

Censorship is a breach of respect, on the part of some members of society, for the human dignity and equality of other members of society. This is achieved by preventing some persons from enjoying access to the same information and ideas as are available to those responsible for or effecting the censorship.

Because censorship prevents the enjoyment of several generally recognized human rights, as expressed most fundamentally in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, IFLA emphatically argues for principles of freedom of expression and freedom of access to information.

While there may be situations where there are restrictions on access to information, these should be the exception, not the rule, be based on legal process, and be reasonable, proportionate, and transparent, remaining in the spirit of the Universal Declaration. If a less restrictive means of achieving the intended result exists, it must be preferred. 

There is also the risk of self-censorship – conscious or unconscious choices by librarians and other information workers not to give access to specific works on the basis of fear or uncertainty about the reaction by authorities or users. Such censorship risks going unrecorded, making it more difficult to identify and to counter.

All persons, governments and other institutions of society—including library and information services, their associations and their workers—are therefore called to defend and promote freedom of expression and freedom of access to information.

Recommendations to Library and Information Services and Library Associations

• Become familiar with and promote awareness of the fundamental documents cited in the annex to this statement, which relate both to human rights relevant to information and to the library sector’s responsibility to promote and defend them.
• As fully as possible, build library collections and provide library services that are free of intentional censorship.
• In collection development specifically, attempt to reflect the full range of opinion on controversial topics or the full range of diversity in the national context, basing decisions on what to purchase or license on professional considerations (quality, currency, format, cost, etc.), rather than as limited by political or religious considerations or cultural prejudice.
• Educate library users on issues of censorship and encourage them to favour and practice freedom of expression and freedom of access to information in their personal and professional lives.
• Insofar as is feasible, ensure libraries are able to use technology to preserve freedom of access to information and expression and the ability to communicate freely on the Internet.
• Advocate for removal of censorship restrictions affecting library and information services and society at large, where necessary with due consideration for local circumstances.
• Support library and information services (and their employees) that are being challenged on questions of censorship.
• Inform IFLA of instances of or ongoing practices of censorship in a state, so that IFLA may be able to support a library association that is dealing with censorship issues in the state. 
• Build understanding of the risks of self-censorship.
