Panel discussion: New challenges for libraries in the digital age
Panel: New challenges for libraries in the digital era. Libraries are undergoing profound transformation in the digital era, which presents multiple challenges ranging from technological to social and ethical. In recent years, libraries of all kinds have implemented changes in their services and collection management to meet user demands and to take advantage of the opportunities and challenges posed by digital transformation, including the emergence of artificial intelligence. These challenges also create opportunities to reinvent the role of libraries as key nodes in the knowledge society, serving as agents of digital, informational, and media literacy.

International Librarian Symposium
Panel discussion: Information management in the digital age
Panel: Information management in the digital era. The dynamic digital universe has prompted libraries to implement a series of structural changes to manage their services and collections and to become vibrant community centers, equipped with the infrastructure necessary to provide users with access to information across diverse media, formats, and sources: databases, the internet, generative artificial intelligence, and more. Libraries also serve as educational centers, supporting individuals in developing digital, informational, and media literacy skills, essential for participating knowledgeably, responsibly, safely, and ethically in the public sphere. This reality demands new competencies for librarians, enabling them to adapt quickly to constant change, acquire expertise in emerging technologies, manage data, and develop information literacy skills, among others.
