International Indigenous Librarians Forum 2015 The 9th International Indigenous Librarians' Forum August 4-7, 2015 http://libguides.lib.umanitoba.ca/NinthInternationalIndigenousLibrariansForum2015

It is my honour to extend a warm welcome to all Indigenous library and information professionals to gather at the University of Manitoba from August 4-7, 2015 for the Ninth International Indigenous Librarians' Forum. Calling Indigenous Knowledge Keepers & Allies to Share and Celebrate Indigenous Knowledge, Memory & Culture and Indigenizing Practice. Vision of the International Indigenous Librarian

s’ Forum

We, as unified Indigenous peoples who work with libraries and information, will ensure the appropriate care, development and management of the Indigenous knowledge of generations past, present and future. Created at the 1999 Forum in Aotearoa, New Zealand

Purpose

The International Indigenous Librarians' Forum is held every two years for the purpose of providing a "focused exploration of the significant issues facing libraries and institutions that care for Indigenous and cultural information" (International Indigenous Librarians' Forum Proceedings, Te Rōpū Whakahau, 2001). It allows a meeting place for Indigenous librarians and information management workers to discuss, debate and describe their experience of working within the industry and their visions, hopes and expectations for the future. An exciting programme has been planned with speakers, panels, and opportunities for participants to give input into the discussions that will determine our future. We look forward to welcoming the delegates to Winnipeg and to the University of Manitoba in August!

Guest editors, Ann M. Doyle, University of BC and Cheryl A. Metoyer, University of Washington are pleased to announce a special double issue of Cataloging & Classification Quarterly devoted to Indigenous Knowledge Organization.

The issue offers an international and interdisciplinary dialogue about Indigenous approaches to organizing and sharing Indigenous expressions of knowledge held in libraries, archives, and museums. It includes theoretical and applied research from New Zealand, Canada, and the United States on knowledge representation, classification, and metadata in Indigenous contexts. In 2016, we expect that it will be published as a book. Thanks to Sandra Roe, CCQ Editor in Chief, for the invitation.

Thank you to all the delegates for attending! IILF only happens because people gather together to share their knowledge. The livestream will be available for approximately 4 weeks in the archive if you are interested. We are still trying to raise funding to make a finished product. Any donation toward that endeavour are welcome! We hope to see you all at the University of Sydney in 2017 for the 10th IILF then in New Zealand in 2019.
