FAQ – IFLAcamp #5

What is the IFLAcamp?

It is a two-day unconference that provides plenty of space for ad-hoc sessions and group discussions. The participant-driven approach allows for active involvement of all attendees and including all kinds of topics of interest.

The first day will be settled at the very heart of Wroclaw, the famous Rynek, at Dolnośląska Biblioteka Publiczna im. Tadeusza Mikulskiego — the Regional public library of Wroclaw. It will be dedicated to “movement” with a Movement workshop in the morning followed by exploring a variety of trends: you can come with a topic you would like to talk about with professionals from all over the world; we vote in the morning to decide what will be explored during the day. Read on!

The second day will be dedicated to a short Cycling for libraries tour in the Wroclaw area, an opportunity to meet Polish librarians and see points of interest. You do not have to be a professional cyclist, just an adventurer eager to spend quality time with fellow librarians on the move. Read on!
