Two Posters about Reading Promotion and Educational Training from National Central Library make a great hit in IFLA Poster Session

From August 16-21, 2014, the 80thInternational Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) General Conference and Assembly was held in Lyon, France. From August 18-20, a poster session was also held, with 210 posters on display from around the globe. In terms of total number of accepted posters by each country, the host country of France has displayed 45 posters, the U.S. 28, Germany 13, Finland 10, Taiwan and Canada 9 each, Japan 7, and other participating countries less than 7 each. 

There are two posters from National Central Library (NCL) selected by the IFLA conference for display. The first one(#197) is the poster of the first ever Taiwan Reading Festival, which brought together public and private entities in a cooperative promotion for enjoying reading. The second poster (#12) was designed by Senior Specialist Tzu-Heng Chiu to show the results of the project “Educational Outcomes of a Young Adult Library CE Course: Taiwan’s Experience.” It analyzed the results of library staff training by presenting the assessment data from a pre-, post-, and 6 month follow-up.

The poster session provided a great opportunity for NCL’s presenting the results of reading promotion and educational training activities to the whole world. Due to this, director of the librarianship development division Peng Kao represented NCL to attend the conference and poster session and to introduce NCL’s services to visitors. In the first day of the session, lots of visitors were attracted to view the NCL's posters and take pictures, providing a successful promotion of NCL's services to international audience.
