The IFLA Information Literacy Section (ILS) and Environmental Sustainability and Libraries Section (ENSULIB) are organising a session within the World Library and Information Congress (talking place in Busan, South Korea, 10-13 August 2026): Climate Literacy for Sustainable Futures: Libraries Empowering Communities to Act. There is a call for papers (at least one author has to present in person) and the deadline is 27 April 2026. The focus is on "how libraries of all kinds can play a role in tackling mis/disinformation about climate change and support their communities to live more sustainably." "We welcome contributions that share original research, case studies, or practical initiatives from any library setting or region. Proposals might address strategies for tackling climate mis/disinformation, partnerships that advance climate literacy, innovative programs that empower users to live more sustainably, or professional development approaches that build the skills and confidence of library workers in this area. Submissions from diverse geographic and community contexts are strongly encouraged. In addition: Papers should reflect the WLIC’s theme, Libraries Powering Transformation".
