The 84 th IFLA General Conference and Assembly with the theme ＂Transform Libraries： Transform Societies＂ was held in Kuala Lumpur of Malaysia from August 24 th to 30 th. Over 3,500 delegates from more than 110 countries attended. IFLA President, Glòria Pérez-Salmerón declared, ＂We are the motors of change, and we are ready. Ready to move up a gear. It is our duty. And our opportunity. Because societies are better, fairer, stronger and more diverse for being shaped by libraries.＂ One of the most important achievements was the official release of the IFLA Global Vision Report. IFLA Secretary General, Gerald Leitner said, ＂No other organization in the field of culture, education and science in the world has been able to launch such an inclusive and democratic process worldwide. The IFLA Global Vision Report is the manifestation of the power and opportunities of a united library field.＂ A series of reports such as IFLA＇s Trend Report and Statement on Copyright Education and Copyright Literacy, were published as well that received a worldwide attention. Sun Yigang put forward his thoughts and suggestions on China＇s active participation in the Global Vision projects, more active participation in IFLA initiatives, and enhancement of the discourse rights. Cheng Huanwen introduced the core contents of each trend report, and analysed the influence of Global Vision Report and Library Map of the World. He maintained that libraries have everything they need to survive and thrive in this continuously changing world, and that the key to success lies in how we seize the opportunities to adapt to social changes. Wu Jianzhong proposed that libraries should take the initiative to transform, and that we should study the Global Vision Report to achieve the inclusive development of libraries. Zhang Shali sorted out the status quo of Chinese library colleagues＇ participation in IFLA. She suggested that China should actively participate in the work of IFLA committees, and of IFLA annual conferences and sessions, as well as contributing to the IFLA Journal, making China＇s voice heard by IFLA.
