As the professional body for the library and information services (LIS) sector, the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA) exists to support the LIS profession. This is why we are excited to launch the Professional Pathways initiative, to ensure we have a diverse, skilled, valued and supported LIS workforce delivering quality library and information services that anticipate and meet the needs of the population.

This report was created following a meeting of eight staff of the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA) in Canberra who participated in a conversation about how a united library field can tackle the challenges of the future. Together we represent 395 years of library experience, as all of us have been library users from an early age.

This survey was conducted in 2017 to elicite views on how a united library field can tackle the challenges of the future.
