The Canadian Federation of Library Associations / Fédération canadienne des associations de bibliothèques (CFLA-FCAB) is a non-profit federation of Canada’s library associations. It was incorporated on 16 May 2016 and replaced the Canadian Library Association (CLA).[1][2][3]
The CFLA-FCAB’s stated mission is to be “the united voice of Canada’s libraries” [4] and its stated vision is to influence public policy and advance the success of libraries.[4] Membership is open to associations, groups or corporations that further the interests of the Canadian library community and entails an annual membership fee.[5][6] The CFLA-FCAB's stated strategic priorities are to amplify the influence and impact of libraries in national and international public policy; anticipate and respond to the changing information environment by defining national policy positions to advance library excellence; raise the visibility of libraries as contributors to Canadian intellectual, social, and cultural life; and develop a sustainable organization to effectively support CFLA-FCAB’s mission and vision.[4]
CFLA-FCAB’s work is carried out through committees, public-facing position statements, and the creation of resources and reports, including the CFLA-FCAB Truth and Reconciliation Report and Recommendations.[7] CFLA-FCAB also contributes and makes available its responses to federal government consultation requests, including on Canadian Content in a Digital World[8][9] and the Canadian accessibility legislation.[10][11]
