Abstract

2023 marks the mid-way mark of the ambitious and transformational 2030Development Agenda. IFLA has strongly advocated for libraries – the role that they can play in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but that libraries are already doing so much to support the SDGs. At this critical time in the achievement of the Agenda, it is important that all libraries continue to advocate for their work and actively seek collaborators. Whilst Nepal is represented in the IFLA Library Map of the World, there are opportunities to extend the visibility and reach of the work of the libraries of Nepal.
